Developing Story: Arrests Tonight on Wall Street, Say Witnesses

Keith Olbermann reported tonight on his program Countdown (Current TV), that protestors in the Occupy Wall Street movement decided to move onto the Street itself this evening and were quickly met by a phalanx of policemen who pushed back and shot pepper spray into the air in a random dispersal. Olbermann at first said he was awaiting confirmation, then quickly offered that confirmation from both Alternet and The New York Daily News. A reporter from Alternet who witnessed the action confirmed the basic facts.
