The protester who has been in a tree outside Wheeler Hall for more than two weeks came down Friday afternoon and was issued a citation for trespassing.

Michael Schuck, who had previously identified himself only as Fresh, was released by UCPD around 2:15 p.m. Friday, as about 150 people watched. The citation Schuck received banned him from campus for seven days.

His court date is set for April 16.

“I felt (the protest) was successful,” he said. “We raised a huge amount of awareness on campus.”
