Occupy Wall Street Begin May Day Disruptions [VIDEO]

Occupy protesters are spreading out to picket at banks and other New York City businesses to mark International Workers Day, or May Day.

Several dozen protesters gathered at Bryant Park in Manhattan this morning. They planned to march to financial institutions including Chase, Citibank and Bank of America.

Another group picketed outside New York University to protest the university’s expansion plans in Greenwich Village.

Occupy leaders said they’re planning “creative disruptions” in New York throughout the day.

Events are planned in cities across the United States and world-wide today as well.
