SHAC7 Claims No Responsibility for UCSC Researcher Attack

We just made contacted with a member of the reportedly elusive SHAC7. They told us the following:

No--we are not responsible. In fact, the only knowledge we have of the whole ordeal is via the mainstream media. My understanding is the activists were protesting a UCSC vivisector, which (to the best of my knowledge) has absolutely nothing to do with the campaign to close Huntingdon Life Sciences.

Right now, it seems like all there is is a lot of speculation (as to who was involved and why the home was raided) and it would not be surprising if law enforcement is exaggerating activist's involvement in the incident or using it as a catalyst to gather information on local activists.

More importantly, we were not asked out on a date by any of their homepage cover boys. Grimace.
