Photos: For Occupy New Haven, breaking up is hard to do
Posted Apr 18, 2012

After losing a Second Circuit Court of Appeals hearing Tuesday, Occupy New Haven voted to disassemble all of the tents at their encampment except for one, to engage in a symbolic protest. But about 12 protesters resisted and were arrested Wednesday morning. Several other Occupiers immediately began to take down their tents and roll up their sleeping bags.
