New York police arrest dozen of protesters

New York City police has arrested dozens of protesters on Thursday in the city's financial district after Occupy Wall Street protesters attempted to march on the New York Stock Exchange. At the corner of Pine Street and Nassau Street, just blocks from the NYSE, police made their arrests, dragging protesters away after they occupied and blocked the intersection. The action by the protesters had been announced days before as a "Day of Action" in an attempt to shut down the stock exchange. Since September 17, protesters have occupied NEARBY Zu-ccotti Park to protest what they see as an unjust economic system that favors the wealthiest one percent. They also decry a political system that bailed out banks after reckless lending sparked the financial crisis.
