Police raid Occupy Sydney site
FIRST ON 7: Police have dismantled the Occupy Sydney settlement in Martin Place in Sydney’s CBD.
Officers and council workers moved in just before 7 o’clock on Wednesday night.
Four trucks were on scene to remove objects from the site, including a large satellite dish.
The space has been occupied for almost 21 months.
Demonstrators set up the camp in October 2011 as part of a global movement that aims to challenge corporate greed.
The protesters were relatively peaceful, with some continuing to wave flags as the camp was removed.
One occupy protester promised to be back within an hour.
