Occupy Movement News Update of the Day: 10 Occupy Davis protesters were arrested at UC Davis during a peaceful demonstration in the campus quad.

A UC Davis spokeswoman said protesters, who have been camping on the quad since being kicked out of the university administration building on Wednesday, were warned to remove their tents or face eviction by police.

Many dismantled their camping equipment before police arrived, but about 50 protesters stayed put.

The video above shows the students who chose not to leave being pepper sprayed by a police officer while sitting with linked arms around the encampment.

“The communication between police and our liaison was sparse,” said Nick Perrone, recording secretary for the graduate student workers union. “They were not communicating well with student activists. We had no intention to antagonize the police.”
