Six Nations police obstructed by Reclamation site supporters

Six Nations Reclamation site supporters prevented police from arresting the brother of a site spokeswoman last Friday morning when the man was caught speeding and driving without a license along Fourth Line.

The vehicle was occupied by a driver and four passengers. The driver refused to produced a driver’s license, ownership or proof of insurance. All five occupants began shouting at Six Nations Police that they “had no jurisdiction” to arrest anyone and that the police “did not know the Great Law.”

The occupants used cell phones and radios to call 13 more people to the scene who police said continued to interfere with Six Nations Police attempt to arrest the driver.

Police recognized the driver as Terrence Alan Jamieson, 39, who had a previous conviction for impaired driving causing death, in which a local woman was killed. Jamieson is a prohibited driver as a result of the conviction.
