Enraged PETA activists encased their feet in cement at PepsiCo’s New York headquarters over the alleged abuse of bulls in its sugar supply chain, according to authorities and reports.
The animal rights activists clad in bull horns blocked the entrance to the PepsiCo headquarters in Purchase on Wednesday during the multinational food and beverage corporation’s virtual annual shareholder meeting, PETA announced in a statement.
Video from the scene captured the chanting protesters spilling fake blood on the roadway, with their shoes stuck in cement blocks as cars honked and cops demanded they scurry.
“Pepsi profits, bulls pay the price!” the activists screamed as officers swooped in and began cuffing them, at times removing their costume bull horns.
Firefighters later arrived to drill and break the cement blocks from the protesters’ feet. Some of them were seen being taken to ambulances on stretchers after the ordeal.
One officer was heard accusing the fake-blood-drenched clan of trying to stage a “photo-op” while warning them to stop the protest.
Six protestors were arrested and charged with criminal mischief, disorderly conduct, and criminal tampering, News12 reported.
The spectacle was staged to urge PepsiCo to stop sourcing sugar from partners and suppliers in India, where PETA claims that bulls are beaten, whipped, and forced to haul illegally overloaded sugar cane carts in extreme heat.

The first responders should have put orange vests on them and use these idiots as orange traffic barrels. At least for a week.
They tried something similar at the VW plant in Germany (I think). Broke-in on a Friday afternoon, chained themselves to the structure.
...and the workers went home for a nice weekend. Place probably STUNK when they returned.
Agree...just pull em to the side of the road and leave them. Dumb ass idiots.
I think this was in Germany. Some protesters glued their hands to the roadway. The police responded by cutting around their hands and leaving the protestors with a couple pounds of pavement hanging off their hands, while they spent hours in custody.
Fine. Now do it to Planned Parenthood for the human babies that "pay the price".
Yes and they dropped the temperature
In the not too distant past these were called ‘cement overshoes’ and used by the mob to eliminate the problem of a body being bouyant.
I’ve seen those massive dozers. The driver really can’t see well over the massive blade.
Too bad, so sad!
Or as Scotty referred to them in that episode of Star Trek, "concrete galoshes".
Has PETA actually ever accomplished anything with these retarded stunts?
I know you don’t drive the dozers; but thanks for what you do.
I’m kinda overspent fixing up a new house, or I’d be back in Israel this year.
My British Sar-El buddies and I are going on the Langtang trek in Nepal in October up to 17,000 feet. At least I can reconnect with great friends.
Is there a river nearby?
Good luck!
I’m sure it will be a experience.
I have trouble talking myself into leaving Ohio.
Leave the concrete on and put them in a ring with a bull. I bet they do not love the bull when its running over them.
What did PETA do to protest the abuse of Beagles by Fauci in drug/disease testing???
Concrete tends to shrink as it cures ...
