A Brooklyn judge has set bail at $5,000 for one activist arrested protesting the sentence of former NYPD officer Peter Liang in front of the Brooklyn District Attorney’s house on Tuesday night.

The activist, Jason Woody, will be awaiting trial at Rikers Island jail, which can take months or even years, unless activists can raise at least $1,000 for bond on the $5,000 bail by later today, according to several people present in court for the arraignment.

The other six activists arrested at the demonstration were released from Brooklyn Central Booking late last night, almost 24 hours after their arrests. Each of them was charged with Obstruction of Governmental Administration (OGA) and three counts of Disorderly Conduct (DisCon), a misdemeanor and three violations, respectively.

Woody, who is black, was additionally charged with felony assault of an officer, resulting in the $5,000 bail. One day earlier, a white couple from Virginia who “attacked a (NYPD) transit police officer, hitting him repeatedly with his own baton and choking him with the chain attached to the shield around his neck” were also charged with felony assault of an officer and asked to post $5,000 bail, according to DNA Info.

By comparison, this is the incident for which Woody was charged with the same:

Woody was documenting the protest, which was contained to the sidewalk, from his bicycle in the roadway at the time he was arrested. This is legal in New York City as long as he is biking, not walking. (Woody regularly documents protests in NYC in this manner.)

According to Ashoka Jegroo, who was also documenting the demonstration, Woody was taken down by approximately 10 NYPD officers. One officer’s finger was cut during the incident, which is likely what the felony assault of an officer charge stems from.

Meanwhile, activists received visible injuries from their arrest and detainment:
