On May 10, a squat (a house which had been abandoned for 20 years) that local activists opened in Towson was busted. 2 juveniles were arrested for this, both are being charged with trespassing and 4th degree buglary. One of the arrestees said guns were pulled on the two as they exited the house. In response to this, local activists set-up a demonstration in front of the Towson Precinct 6 until both were released.

Then on May 20, people gathered in Towson to demonstrate against the arrest of squatters and to support squatters rights.
