Police dismantle Occupy SF camp in early morning raid

[The Straight Story]

04:42 PDT -- Police this morning have dismantled the "Occupy SF" camp that was erected in October at Justin Herman Plaza along San Francisco's Embarcadero, according to an Occupy SF member.

Ryan, who declined to give his last name, said riot police arrived around 2 a.m. and announced campers had five minutes to clear out of the plaza.

"That left no time to get personal objects," he said.

Protesters are determined to peacefully resist, despite the destruction of personal items and tents this mornin.

Ryan estimated at least 200 police have arrived at the plaza. They are threatening arrests to anyone in the streets, he added.
