AR-News: (CA/US) Tre Arrow ends six-week hunger strike

[Animalconcerns]

Environmental activist Tre Arrow has ended his hunger strike in a Canadian
jail by drinking juice and eating brussels sprouts, his attorney said Monday.

Arrow, who eats only raw vegetables, had fasted since his arrest in
Victoria, British Columbia in mid-March on shoplifting charges. He had
been a fugitive from the FBI for 19 months, and the agency has said it is
working with Canadian authorities to return Arrow to Oregon for trial. 
...
Canadian authorities initially declined to provide Arrow with raw
vegetables to break the fast, Russel said, offering cooked vegetarian
meals instead.
