Protesters reconvened at Republic Square Park and began to march up Sixth Street.

Seven arrests were made in total, including videographer Corey Williams, ‘Occupy Austin’ organizers, and 58-year-old Claire Hirschkind who fell to the ground and was taken to Brackenridge Hospital. City officials say that Hirschkind has a history of seizures but witnesses say she was pushed down by police.

New regulations put in place by the City Manager prohibit any non-city usage of the area between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. and bar the use of “sleeping, camping and the use or storage of sleeping equipment.” A reservation is now required by any group wishing to use the area’s mezzanine and amphitheater.
