佔領華爾街：無畏警方拘捕示威人士持續抗爭

策劃、編譯■李威撰、謝雯伃

紐約警方1日在一場未經申請的示威活動中，以佔據布魯克林大橋車道為由，逮捕超過7百人。不過，反華爾街示威人士2日誓言要持續抗爭。

Anti-Wall Street protesters vowed to keep up their fight on Sunday despite the arrests of more than 700 people the previous day for blocking traffic lanes on the Brooklyn Bridge in an unauthorized protest.

紐約警方1日對部分「佔領華爾街」運動的參加人士發出超過7百張的傳票。被逮捕的人士在遭到多次警告後，仍在布魯克林大橋的車道上遊行，造成該區交通阻塞，布魯克林大橋關閉數小時後重新開放。

Police issued more than 700 summonses （1） on Saturday to members of the Occupy Wall Street movement who, despite multiple warnings, took part in the march on the Brooklyn-bound lanes which snarled traffic in the area until the bridge was reopened hours later.

大多數收到傳票並被逮捕的示威者，隨後都獲得釋放。「在1、2個小時過後，我們會在其他地方繼續抗議。」紐約塞拉托加溫泉市史基德摩學院主修英語的學生博納表示，他在示威者當中扮演發言人的角色。

Most of the protesters who were arrested were issued summonses and released. "In an hour or two, we'll be somewhere else protesting," said Patrick Bruner, an English major at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York, who has been serving a spokesman for the protesters.

他補充，示威團體已做好應變計畫，以防示威者的臨時營帳遭警方搜捕或強制拆除。

He added that the group had contingency plans （2） in case the park where they have set up a makeshift camp was raided or they were forcibly removed.

佔領華爾街運動得到了諸如電影製作人摩爾和女星蘇珊莎蘭登等名人的支持，示威群眾抗議取消房屋贖回權、高失業率和2008年政府對華爾街的援助法案。

The Occupy Wall Street movement, which has garnered （3） the support of celebrities such as filmmaker Michael Moore and actress Susan Sarandon, are protesting against home foreclosures, high unemployment and the 2008 bailouts.

1日在洛杉磯有超過100名示威者在市政府前紮營，佔領華爾街運動的籌畫者表示，他們希望這類的抗議活動能夠散布到全美各地。

In Los Angeles, more than 100 protesters camped out in front of City Hall overnight Saturday. Occupy Wall Street organizers say they hope to see such protests spread across the country.

1日紐約的遊行自當地時間下午3點30分開始，示威者駐紮在曼哈頓鬧區的祖科提公園，該公園是一片對外開放的私人土地，離世貿中心遺址不遠。

Saturday's march in New York began at 3:30 p.m. (1930 GMT) from the protesters' camp in Zuccotti Park, which is private land open to the public, in downtown Manhattan near the former World Trade Center.

紐約消防局表示，曾前往示威者駐紮營區檢視防火安全事宜。反華爾街團體成員誓言整個冬天都要在營帳中渡過。

The fire department said it has been to the camp to check for fire safety issues. Members of the anti-Wall Street group have vowed to stay at the camp through the winter.

紐約市消防局發言人戴爾表示：「我們擔心的是煮飯、瓦斯罐和垃圾堆積等問題。我們所關心的是每個人都能安全。」

"Our concern is cooking, the use of propane tanks and garbage piling up. All we're concerned about is that everybody is safe," said Frank Dwyer, a spokesman for the Fire Department of New York.

紐約示威者所駐紮的公園，是由上市公司布克費爾德物產所擁有。該公司日前在一份聲明中指出，該公司相當關切該公園所發生的狀況，正與市府官員合作將該公園回復到原本應有的用途。

The park property is maintained by Brookfield Properties, a publicly traded corporation. In a statement issued last week the company said it was extremely concerned about the conditions that have been created in the park and was working with city officials to restore the park to its intended purpose.

1日在布魯克林橋上的示威活動中，警方使用橘色網柵將示威者包圍。現場目擊者表示，當時情況混亂，示威者被戴上手銬後帶離橋上。

During Saturday's protest on the bridge, police used orange mesh nets to surround the marchers in what witnesses described as chaotic scenes with protesters being handcuffed （4） and taken off the bridge.

警方已事先警告示威者，只能站在行人通行道上。一名警方發言人表示：「有些人集結在一起，佔據布魯克林大橋的行人通道，這些人並沒有被逮捕。另外有一些人堵住了布魯克林大橋的汽車通行道，因此被捕。」

Warnings were given by the police to the protesters to stay on the pedestrian walkway. "Some complied and took the walkway without being arrested. Others locked arms and proceeded on the Brooklyn-bound vehicular roadway and were arrested," a police spokesman said.

9月30日，有超過1千人和平遊行至紐約市警局總部門口，抗議警方日前在聯合廣場商業區逮捕了80名佔領華爾街運動成員。在當天的遊行中，數名女性遭胡椒噴霧噴灑。這一幕被錄了下來，在網路上被多人瀏覽。

The arrests followed a peaceful march to police headquarters on Friday by more than 1,000 people to protest the arrest of 80 members of the Occupy Wall Street movement the previous week in the Union Square shopping district. During that march a few women were doused （5） with pepper spray which was captured on video and viewed widely on the Internet.

佔領華爾街運動團體得到包括教師聯合工會和運輸工人工會第100分會等工會團體的支持。

The group has garnered support from some union members including the United Federation of Teachers and the Transport Workers Union Local 100.
