KOMO News reported, via Orbusmax:
Police arrested 16 Occupy Seattle protesters early Saturday after the protesters broke into a locked Capitol Hill building, barricaded themselves inside and refused to leave.
The incident began at about 5:30 p.m. Friday, when a number of Occupy Seattle protesters broke into the empty, privately owned building in the 900 block of East Union Street, said Seattle police detective Mark Jamieson.
The protesters then decided to hold a benefit concert as a fund-raiser and let other people inside the building.
Seattle police officers then tried to contact the protesters, but the protesters closed and locked the door, then barricaded themselves inside.
While the officers were at the door, some protesters scrambled onto the roof and began spitting on them, Jamieson said. The officers then withdrew.
When the owner of the building was contacted, he said the protesters did not have permission to enter or remain in the building.
At about 3:25 a.m. Saturday, officers again went to the building and ordered everyone inside to leave. The order was repeated at 3:33 a.m.
