DISTURBANCE AT ARCOLOGY QUARANTINE
SEATTLE(UJI) - Witnesses claim to have seen and heard a battle outside
the Renraku Arcology in downtown Seattle today. Eyewitnesses report
hearing gunfire and explosions outside a bus terminal entrance, and
state that a number of Renraku guards and UCAS Army soldiers were killed
and wounded. The UCAS Army has cordoned off the area and refused to
comment.
Ever since setting up a quarantine zone around the Arcology just two
weeks ago, the UCAS Army has forcibly evacuated non-necessary personnel
from the Arcology's immediate vicinity. Combined with numerous street
blockades, restricted air traffic and a strict curfew, the situation has
become a nightmare for downtown traffic and business. Despite the
problems, Seattle's United Corporate Council has complied fully with
UCAS Army demands. To date, Renraku, the UCAS Army and the Corporate
Court have all declined to comment or speculate further on the situation
or on when it might be resolved.
