Iraq vet in critical condition after Oakland protest 26 Oct 2011 Authorities have not released information on injuries from Tuesday’s clash [between Occupy Oakland protesters and police]. However, officials at Highland Hospital in Oakland said today that one protester, 24-year-old Scott Olsen of Daly City, a member of Iraq Veterans Against the War, was in critical condition. The antiwar group said Olsen, a system administrator at a San Francisco software firm, suffered a skull fracture when he was hit by a “blunt object.” Olsen joined the U.S. Marines in 2006, served two tours in Iraq, and was discharged in 2010, the group said.
