Just after 9 p.m. an official in plain clothes removed the handcuffs locking the doors of the King Street entrance from the inside.

The official declined to identify himself to a Journal Sentinel reporter but another State Patrol officer identified the man unlocking the cuffs as a law enforcement officer.

A demonstrator, Matthew Pearson of Madison, said he was glad the doors were being unlocked so people could leave the building in an emergency.

"How are we supposed to get out?" Pearson said.

3. Is there any way those anti-union comments at the end of the article could be

traced to see if they are coming from Republican organizations?
