Police arrest almost everyone. No unlawful assembly declared.
The protest lasted minutes. Police arrested most of the demonstrators.
Police gave warning to get on the sidewalk. Police will release the charges in a few hours, but it is clear protestors were standing in the street chanting. Nothing thrown, no unlawful assembly announced.
