#mockupy Fauxcotti

reality TV | 09.12.2011 07:17

Last night, activists from #OccupyWallSt occupied a mock-up of Zucotti Park which had been built for the TV show 'Law and Order'. The set included a mock-up of the Peoples Kitchen and Library.

Police rushed in to evict the real occupiers from the fake camp, pulled the permit for the set, which had been built in Foley Park, and broke down the camp, in scenes eerily reminiscent of the original eviction. No arrests have been reported so far.
