New York Police are evicting anti-Wall Street demonstrators from the New York square where the nationwide 'Occupy' movement first began.
"Liberty Square [Zuccotti Park], home of Occupy Wall Street for the past two months and birthplace of the 99% movement that has spread across the country and around the world, is presently being evicted by a large police force," the demonstrators said in a statement released on Tuesday.
According to police officials, most of the protesters left peacefully. However, 15 people were arrested for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.
