10 Arrested in Westlake Park

Occupy Seattle Rally in Westlake Park

On October 13th at approximately 10:15 pm, officers announced to the occupants of Westlake Park that the park was closed.

Shortly afterward, officers began contacting individuals who were inside a makeshift structure and warned them that if they did not leave they would be subject to possible arrest. The individuals, eight men and two women, refused the orders from officers and were placed under arrest for Obstructing a Public Officer.

The arrested individuals were later booked into the King County Jail.
