Charges Dropped Against Occupy Little Rock Protestors

By: KARK 4 News

Updated: January 23, 2013

The four people arrested during Occupy Little Rock will no longer face charges.

During a scheduled trial appearance in district court on Wednesday, the state dropped disorderly conduct charges against the four protestors.

Members of Occupy Little Rock were arrested in May as police were evicting them from their parking lot encampment on Fourth and Ferry Streets.

Occupy Wall Street began as a protest to social and economic inequality in Sept. 2011 and spread nationwide.
