NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Authorities in Tennessee have made some arrests at the site where a few dozen Wall Street protesters have been encamped for about three weeks in Nashville.

Authorities began moving in early Friday using a newly enacted state policy that set a curfew for the grounds near the state Capitol, including Legislative Plaza where the protesters had been staying in tents.

The state's new rules specifically ban "overnight occupancy" at the public space and require permits and use fees for rallies.
