WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Canada -- Winnipeg police arrested a 19-year-old who threw a rock through his window -- but not the man, Kyle Klochko, who committed the hate crime.

Klochko dumped dirt and debris on an MMIW mural at the Brady Landfill barricade site, honoring Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women.

John Sitarek said on Twitter, "Members of Camp Morgan that set up a blockade at Brady landfill cleaned off the debris dumped on the mural. Diane Bousque one of about a dozen people who helped paint it recently said "No matter what you throw on us… we're always going to create something beautiful."

WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- Native defenders and family members of the victims are demanding a search of landfills for murdered Indigenous women. They established Camp Morgan at the Brady Road landfill, after remains of murdered Indigenous women were found here, and set up a barricade on the road Thursday after the city refused to search for murdered Indigenous women at a second landfill.

TREATY ONE TERRITORY, Manitoba – The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs (AMC) and Chief Kyra Wilson of Long Plain First Nation express profound disappointment over the City of Winnipeg’s decision to dismantle Camp Morgan, a sacred camp believed to be the burial site of three First Nations women. The AMC is also concerned about the injunction imposed on the Camp Morgan blockade, hindering efforts to seek justice for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2Spirit (MMIWG2S+) in Manitoba.
