Ten Arrests at Occupy Cleveland

Tulelake, CA— Below is the story about the Ten Arrests at Occupy Cleveland. They wrote about it better than I could have, but I could have if I would have gotten the same information from behind the scenes.

CLEVELAND -- Ten people were arrested at the Occupy Cleveland protest Friday night.

The movement's permits to camp out at Public Square expired at 10 p.m. As the time came the rally grew to a couple hundred people.

Cleveland police arrived in force, and asked protesters to move out of the Public Square parks, and on to the sidewalks. Most protesters cooperated with the police request. Ten people chose to stay in Public Square and they were arrested.

The entire demonstration was peaceful and police did not have to use force.

After the arrests, some protesters marched to the Justice Center.

Then they marched back to Public Square where some tents remained. Those tents will need to be cleared out by 6 a.m. Saturday.

Occupy Cleveland has another rally planned for Saturday morning at 9 a.m.
