A beautiful new year and the St Louis occucrowd is already sampling the pepper spray. Actually their was some protesting a few days ago during a rape at the New Haven camp.
Occupy protest arrests in St. Louis; some bloodied
Fourteen Occupy protesters were arrested following a testy confrontation with St. Louis police on the first day of a Midwest regional gathering.
Several hundred people from around the country are in St. Louis for this week's Occupy the Midwest conference. About 150 protesters sought to set up an encampment Thursday at Compton Hill Reservoir Park, but were told by police they would be in violation of the park's 10 p.m. curfew.
At around 10:30 p.m., officers moved in, prompting a skirmish that left some protesters bloodied. Officers used pepper spray during the exchange. Two of the 14 arrested are expected to face resisting arrest charges in addition to curfew violation charges.
None of the injuries were believed to be serious. No police officers were hurt, but the front window of a police cruiser was smashed.
