Occupy Chicago’ protesters confront Rahm’s chief of staff
Source" Raw Story

Volunteers from National Nurses United and “Occupy Chicago” demonstrators marched to City Hall on Tuesday to protest their arrest late Saturday night in Grant Park.

About 130 people were arrested after they set up tents in protest against the consolidation of economic power and refused to leave the public park after closing time.

The majority of protesters peacefully heeded police warnings and left the park. Those who stayed were charged with misdemeanor trespassing and kept in holding cells for several hours.

Another 175 “Occupy Chicago” protesters were arrested in Grant Park in mid October
