Oscar-winning actress Jane Fonda was arrested for
the fifth time here while protesting with climate
change activists. Dubbed as Fire Drill Fridays, Fonda has been protesting every week since October, sometimes with other popular personalities, to raise awareness about climate change and focus attention on the anti-fossil fuels movement. A video of Fonda’s most recent arrest has made its way onto the social media, in which she is shown cuffed, and seems to be enjoying the moment, reports a website. The actress, who will turn 82 on Saturday, was avoiding arrest in the past weeks as she was accumulating many run-ins with the law and that she would be facing lengthier jail stints. Fonda has asserted that she is willing to get arrested as many times as it takes to get her point across. (IANS)
