From the San Francisco Chronicle:
Scott Olsen, 24, a Marine veteran who did two tours in Iraq, was hit by a
police projectile during the brutal police crackdown on Occupy Oakland
on 10/26. He is in serious but stable condition at an Oakland hospital
with traumatic head injury. Scott is a member of Iraq Veterans Against
the War.
Also: Video footage distributed on the Internet shows a protester, identified as Olsen, being carried away by others with a head
wound. The cause was unclear. While he lay wounded, the footage appears
to show an officer tossing something - perhaps a tear gas canister -
toward people trying to help him.
