They say he ran between the buildings, which contradicts police statements. The Crusade party was happening one unit of the building. The police searched all 10 units, then later came up with a warrant about noon. They didn’t deliver the warrant to any of the tenants. The police were shooting into the crusade building (where they claimed they had been targeted by sniper fire). There was a loud explosion. A bomb. at 9:30 Corky Gonzales brought in a an independent explosives detective to investigate, police charged him with unlawful use of an explosive and aggravated assault on an officer. the independent explosive detective was denied entry along with Corky the police stated they needed a court order for entry into the building to conduct the investigation. Corky and the Crusaders believe that it was a police conspiracy along with the FBI to provoke an incident in order to justify a search of all 10 units of the Crusade’s headquarters. the police and FBI believed the headquarters was being used as a storage place for weapons to be used at the American Indian Movement occupation of Wounded Knee.
