Self-described “commie…trans” April J. Foster, 29, was arrested by Kansas City, Missouri police on Friday for slapping a police horse at a protest against leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on March 12. April was charged with abuse of a police service animal. The slap was witnessed and reported by a photographer with the Kansas City Star: “A photographer with The Star saw a woman slap a police horse in the face. When officers pointed her out for arrest, she disappeared into the crowd.” KCTV-TV reported on the police report about the attack on the horse. Police said Foster approached an officer and his horse named Dan and began yelling and screaming in the horse’s face, trying to scare the animal. “When this tactic did not work she attempted to push my horse with no success. I observed this to only make her more angry and violent and in a last attempt she struck my horse in the face with an open hand,” the officer’s report said.
The officer said Foster then ran away and they weren’t able to catch up to her due to the size of the crowd. Foster is affiliated with the communist group, Progressive Youth Organization, and can be seen in video and photographs taken at the protest holding one end of a large red banner emblazoned with a gold star lettered PYO and the message, “Dare to Struggle, Dare to Win.” Foster’s bio at Instagram: “aprilfosterrr April KC, worker, writer, commie, feminist, music, books, trans, go Royals. twitter.com/aprilfosterrr” https://www.instagram.com/aprilfosterrr/ -- Foster proudly proclaimed membership in the PYO in a tweet on Thursday, one day before being arrested. “I will always be proud to say I am a PYO member. I am PYO for life. Boring ass haters only embolden us and strengthen the organization.” PYO posted a tweet Saturday demanding charges be dropped against Foster, calling Foster “our comrade” and “one of our most vocal leaders. Foster posted $500 bail and is scheduled back in court on May 4.
