One person arrested during protest at Helena's Confederate memorial [View all]

(HELENA) A group of about 20 people has gathered near the Confederate memorial fountain in Helena to protest its removal, and one person has been arrested.

City workers put up fencing around the fountain in preparation for removing it from Hill Park.

Assistant Helena Police Chief Steve Hagen says one woman was arrested for obstructing a police officer.

Hagen told MTN News that people were asked to come out from inside the fence and told they would be arrested if they did not.

The woman refused to comply.
