Police in New York City have freed most of the more than 700 people arrested on Brooklyn Bridge on Saturday during a protest against corporate greed. Fewer than 20 protesters are still held as they are yet to be identified. Most of those freed were given citations for disorderly conduct and a criminal court summons. The Occupy Wall Street group, camped in Manhattan's financial district for two weeks, says it will continue its demonstrations. A spokesman for the New York Police Department told the BBC the small group still detained were expected to appear at the Manhattan criminal court on Sunday. |
