X-Clan member Paradise Gray the Architect was arrested in Pittsburgh on Thursday during a protest outside a local corporate building, where community members were demanding more benefits.

Paradise was accused of blocking the doorway to the building, while other eye witness accounts stated he was attempting to help people make their way out. He was then “tackled” and charged with resisting arrest. Three others during the protest were arrested, and were released shortly after.

After the incident, Paradise explained, “I was not one of the people who was trying to be arrested. I was rushed by the police after trying to free a young lady from being crushed by the revolving door that was being pushed hard by a man trying to exit the building.”
