"Daryl Hannah Arrested In Keystone XL Protest" [1]

"The actor Daryl Hannah was arrested in northeast Texas on Thursday, along with a landowner as the pair protested against an oil pipeline designed to bring crude from Canada to the Gulf Coast."



"'They've arrested Daryl Hannah and a rural Texas great-grandmother,' said Paul Bassis, Hannah's attorney.

Hannah and Eleanor Fairchild were standing in front of heavy equipment in an attempt to halt construction of the Keystone XL pipeline on Fairchild's farm in Winnsboro, a town about 100 miles east of Dallas. They were arrested for criminal trespassing and taken to the Wood County Jail, Bassis said."

The Associated Press had the story October 5, 2012. [2]
