Photos: Occupy Boston Not Kicked Out Yet

Residents from all around the Greater Boston area joined up at Dewey Square last night to support Occupy Boston after the City implored protesters to leave by midnight.

Occupy Boston protesters were not forced to leave Dewey Square fully yesterday and past midnight - the deadline set by the City of Boston, for protesters to leave.

Instead protesters were seen throwing out much of the makeshift tent city throughout the day, after City personnel distributed flyers telling protesters they were to move by midnight are they could be arrested for trespassing.

Leading up to the midnight deadline, the Occupy Boston protest swelled as people gathered to sing, dance, chant and more.
