Ms. An Chunyun was about to drive to the market on the morning of December 12 when twelve agents suddenly swarmed out of nearby cars and dragged her out of her pickup. They handcuffed her, took her to the Shangguling Police Station, and detained her.
Agents also broke into Ms. An's home to ransack it. When her husband resisted, two officers restricted him. The police seized a computer and some Falun Gong books.
