Route for protesters
The City of St. Paul has authorized this route for protest groups during the Republican National Convention in early September. The route begins at the Capitol grounds, proceeds along Cedar St. To W. 7th St. and end near the Xcel Energy Center, site of the convention.

A fringe group that has vowed to create chaos during the Republican National Convention has posted convention travel plans on its Web site.

The documents show bus routes and maps that will be used to move delegates around during the four-day convention. The plan was not meant to be made public.

St. Paul police spokesman Pete Panos says it's concerning that information that was not intended for the public has gotten out.

However, police also say the document, which is dated March 5, is already outdated and the incident is not considered a security breach.

A spokesman for the convention wouldn't say whether the document is authentic but did say the transportation plan is still being developed.

The convention is scheduled to run from September 1st through the 4th.

The document was posted on the Indymedia.org Web site and linked to by the RNC Welcoming Committee, a group of self-described anarchists.
