Protesters with "Poor People's Campaign" arrested for blocking downtown Indy street

More than a dozen protesters were arrested Monday afternoon after they blocked a busy downtown Indianapolis street during rush hour.  The group was demonstrating as part of the "Poor People's Campaign" and started at Monument Circle before making their way to the area of Capitol and Ohio streets outside of the Statehouse.  Indianapolis Metropolitan Police were called to the scene after reports of about 50 people blocking the road. Responding officers tried to talk to the protesters and gave them multiple warnings that if they did not leave the street they would be arrested.
