Protestors marched down Michigan Avenue through the South Loop early this evening, resulting in one arrest after a scuffle with cops at the intersection of Michigan Avenue and 18th Street. The arrested protestor's name was not immediately known.


Besides some arguments between cops and protestors, the march was peaceful and relatively quiet. Although after the arrest some protestors yelled at cops, asking "Is this what you signed up for? To protect NATO? Or the people you supposedly serve?" and "We're all the same people, badge or no badge!"
