The Occupy Wall St. protest moved east Saturday across the Brooklyn Bridge, snarling traffic as thousands of protesters marched in both sides of the bridge.
Police have confirmed arrests, but would not release the number since the protest is continuing.
The Occupy Wall St. group was joined by various unions, including the Transit Workers Union and the United Federation of Teachers, in a "solidarity march" to Brooklyn.
Police have blocked the group on either end of the bridge.
The plan, according to the group's website, was to end the march at a gathering at Brooklyn Bridge Park at 5:30 p.m.
