Folder 13, Det. Defranco (Sixth & Grand): VIDEO: VTS_01_1

This opens to a massive group of officers at least two lines deep. Their commanding officer, most likely Captain Benjamin, communicates to protesters that they must remove their items from the park, and concludes with one final chance to leave Zuccotti Park.

At 1:22 http://www.youtu.be/bGyyEKbJC9k?t=82s an officer's foot is extended and on top of what is either someone's face.  Clear shouts of "Why are you hitting him?!" can be heard.

An unidentified officer makes an arrest at 2:04 http://www.youtu.be/bGyyEKbJC9k?t=123s followed by two officers dragging this protester off camera while the crowd chants "Disobey your orders! Disobey your orders!"

The camera jolts significantly at 2:11 http://www.youtu.be/bGyyEKbJC9k?t=131s, possibly from an officer getting physical with a protester - but this is speculation based on what happens next, as the crowd begins to scream at 2:17 http://www.youtu.be/bGyyEKbJC9k?t=139s: "Stop, you're hurting him!" referring to something happening off camera. TARU do not pan right to record this.

An abrupt cut to 2:55 http://www.youtu.be/bGyyEKbJC9k?t=175s shows an unidentified object (possibly a person) dragged quickly across the pavement amid more angry shouts from protesters. Speculation: this could be a protester's belongings after an arrest, and TARU censored the arrest from footage.

We see what may be Captain Benjamin himself (stars on shoulder, right side of frame) at 3:09 http://www.youtu.be/bGyyEKbJC9k?t=189s tell a nearby officer "I'm gonna take a walk over there," pointing to a location off-camera. Logger notes this because he may have been witness to some arrests noted earlier.

We see at least three officers at 3:26 http://www.youtu.be/bGyyEKbJC9k?t=206s hauling off a protester by their appendages presumably for arrest off camera.

Time stamp 3:37 several unidentified officers (one of whom is wearing a cap instead of a riot helmet) attempt to break off another protester who has linked arms, the attempt fails.  There are shouts of "officer Brickens (sp?)".

Time stamp 4:50 chants of 6-4-5-3 break out, possibly referring to one of the officers who attempted to remove the protester.

Time stamp 5:38 officers make a second attempt to break off the same protester, chants of 6-8-5-4 arrise, possibly referring to one of the officers attempting to remove the protester.

Time stamp 6:23 Shouts of "officer Benjamin" can be heard.

Time stamp 6:33 a female protester on crutches explains to an officer that another officer tried to take her crutches.

Time stamp 7:28 an unidentified officer takes a guitar from a protester, who is then arrested as they try to get it back.

Time stamp 7:47 2-3 unidentified officers pull away a protester with long blonde hair.

Time stamp 7:56 an unidentified officer pulls a wooden structure out from under a protester who was sitting on top of it.

Time stamp 8:44 several unidentified officers pull a seated protester from a crowd by their feet.

Time stamp 9:10 an unidentified officer tries to dislodge two protesters who had linked arms, then possibly starts punching or violently shaking them.

Time stamp 9:22 protester is successfully removed from the group.

Time stamp 10:37 an unidentified officer reaches out, possibly striking a protester.

Time stamp 12:24 an unidentified officer in the process of subduing a protester removes something (possibly a taser) from his belt.

Time stamp 14:15 an unidentified officer says something that is either "we got a female here" or "we got a she-male (trans slur) here"
