标题: 纽约警方警告占领时代广场抗议者不得进入街面 10人被捕

The NYPD says ten demonstrators were arrested in Manhattan Tuesday as people protesting the Ferguson, Missouri, grand jury decision took to the streets for a second day, temporarily shutting down major streets, highways and bridges, and clashing with police in some areas.

The arrests, all in Times Square, mark a shift in the relatively peaceful protests Monday in New York City. Six of those arrested are charged with disorderly conduct and four with resisting arrest. No injuries were reported during the night, however.

Thousands Protest Ferguson Grand Jury Decision in NYC

The demonstrations began in Union Square early in the evening, then grew by the hundreds as protesters marched and splintered off in different directions. One group walked north, holding signs reading, "We will not be silent" and, "A badge is not a license to kill."

Some protesters tried to walk into the Lincoln Tunnel but were blocked by police. Still, there were major traffic delays there during the evening rush; at one point, there was at least a 12-block backup as protesters swarmed the area, Chopper 4 showed.

Times Square traffic was also at a standstill as protesters got to the area. Police attempted to move people off
streets and onto the sidewalks, and warned they would begin arresting those who did not comply.
