Cincinnati Police say the nine used fake IDs and dressed in business suits to get in. They went to a specific floor and opened the windows to rappel down the building, unfurling the banners.
During the approximately 90 minute incident, 24 Cincinnati Police officers responded as well as two fire companies with a total of six firefighters in each company.
