An estimated 2,000 people have gathered in Lower Manhattan, New York, for the largest protest yet under the banner Occupy Wall Street.
Demonstrators marched on New York's police headquarters to protest against arrests and police behaviour.
Several hundred people have camped out near Wall Street since 17 September as part of protests against corporate greed, politics, and inequality.
Earlier, UK band Radiohead were forced to deny rumours they would appear live.
A tweet sent out by a Twitter account linked to the protest movement set off a firestorm of online interest.
But a spokesman for the band later denied they were planning to appear, and the group themselves denied the rumour on Twitter.
"We wish the best of luck to the protesters there, but contrary to earlier rumours, we will not be appearing today at #occupywallstreet,"
