Just an update ...

Quote:
The [Occupy Portland] activists have settled into Chapman
and Lownsdale Square parks with no announced plans to depart.
Organizers estimate as many as 500 people have be living there.

"I think each city (nationwide) is experiencing something a little
different with this movement," [Police] Chief Reese said,
" We're taking it day by day."

A man was removed Tuesday afternoon from Chapman Square Park
on an accusation of dealing marijuana.
A nine-year-old girl was reported missing for about 40 minutes Tuesday evening.
Parks crew put up a mesh barricade around one statue
and some fragile landscaping in Lownsdale Park.
A scary thing for the Mom, but otherwise ho-hummmm.

Unfortunately, the KGW headline on this story is:
"Police Crack Down on unruly element in 'Occupy Portland' camps."
