As many as 100 arrested at Occupy protest on one-year anniversary

An arrest on Wall Street as Occupy protesters circulate through the financial district trying to disrupt business on Sept. 17.

Looking to reignite their movement on its one-year anniversary, several hundred Occupy Wall Street activists protested in lower Manhattan Monday, staging a sit-in near the iconic New York Stock Exchange and swarming through the streets in costumes and toting American flags and signs.

Roughly 100 protesters were believed to have been arrested, including some rabbis and pastors who had sat down in the street and sidewalk, blocking them, said protester Michael Aaron, who helped organize the demonstrations and was keeping an arrest tally. A police source said multiple arrests occurred at multiple locations.
