Court Ruling Prompts Tire Burning

A judge in Fredericton granting SWN Resources  a two-week extension to its court injunction to keep protesters from interfering with testing for shale gas.
 
The company arguing the injunction, which includes a buffer zone around their equipment, had to be extended in order for it to finish up its work.
