More than 700 people have been arrested during anti-Wall Street protests in the US. Police were forced to close the Brooklyn Bridge as campaigners marched across it without permission.
The arrests took place when a large group of marchers, participating in a second week of protests by the Occupy Wall Street movement, broke off from others on the bridge's pedestrian walkway and headed across the Brooklyn-bound lanes.
The group is protesting against corporate greed and claim they are defending 99 per cent of the US population against the wealthiest 1 per cent.
