Police clear Occupy protesters in one US city

None

Police in riot gear began clearing anti-Wall Street protesters from one California city before dawn Tuesday, making arrests in the plaza where demonstrators have been camped out for about two weeks.

 

Television news footage showed numerous people in plastic handcuffs being led away from the Oakland site around 5 am. The protesters did not appear to be resisting, although an officer did fire a non-lethal projectile from a shotgun at a protester who threw a bottle, authorities told the San Francisco Chronicle newspaper.
