Police arrest about 70 protesters in a nighttime raid of Zuccotti Park. Hundreds of police, some in riot gear, cleared the park over the span of three hours. Protesters will apparently be allowed to return, but with no tents, and I’m assuming no intention of mass encampment. 

Above are photos of an officer clashing with a few protesters. Many of the protesters resisted the raid, some chaining themselves to trees. All photos taken by Don Emmert/AFP/Getty.
