Farmer Declares War on Court Order Over 30000 Bushels
Wayne Cryts leads about 500 farmers in a brazen seizure of 30000 bushels of his soybeans from a bankrupt grain elevator in Missouri. Federal marshals backed off as they pried open the silo with crowbars and vacuum hoses to haul out the crop worth around 250000 dollars. The protest, backed by the American Agriculture Movement, targeted the James Brothers grain firm creditors case now in federal court. FBI monitored the loading as trucks departed. Cryts vowed to sell the beans quickly while risking charges for the action.
