NEW YORK, Sept. 17 (UPI) -- Dozens of protesters were arrested in New York's financial district Monday while marking the first anniversary of the Occupy Wall Street movement, police said.
Organizers originally planned to shut down the financial district by lining the streets with a "human wall," but said "the People's Wall" idea didn't gather momentum so protesters marched instead, singing "Happy Birthday" and chanting slogans, the New York Daily News reported.
