25 Arrested at 'Occupy Seattle' Protest

SEATTLE - Protesters and Seattle police officers clashed at Westlake Park as officers tried to remove protesters at Occupy Seattle. Police arrested 25 people as protesters ignored orders to pack up their tents and move out of the city park.

Police officers on bicycles and in paddy wagons arrived around 1:20 p.m., telling protesters who camped out overnight to move their tents to allow park workers to clean the park. A few protesters at the scene were rolling up their tents while others still remained.

Pick your fights guys. You're not protesting for the right to pitch tents.
