1. Latest at site:
5.17pm: Adam Gabbatt says Occupy Wall Street protesters are now approaching City Hall. The march must be 200m long, he adds.

4.58pm: Paul Harris says a man who hurled a glass bottle at protesters in New York was not challenged by the police.

A man emerged from an alley at the tail end if the protest. He hurled abuse at the marchers, screaming at them to get jobs. Then he threw a glass bottle that smashed within inches of a group of people. Cops watched entire incident and did nothing, even when asked to get out if their car.

4.55pm: Reuters has more details of today's protests in New York:


Hundreds of protesters marched on JP Morgan Chase bank buildings in the financial district, banging drums and chanting, "We got sold out, banks got bailed out."
