The NYPD arrested 70 protesters as they moved in on Zuccotti Park early this morning and began clearing out the thousands
of Occupy Wall Street protesters who had taken over the space for nearly two months.
More than 1,000 cops marched on the lower Manhattan encampment shortly before 1 a.m. and handed out fliers ordering

“You are required to immediately remove all property, including tents, sleeping bags and tarps.
