On Tuesday, Oakland police attacked Occupy Oakland protesters with tear gas, bean bags, wooden dowels, flash grenades, and rubber bullets at protesters. A woman in a wheelchair was reportedly hit by a tear gas cannister (see photo).
Rather than using the weaponry once in a final effort to subdue the crowd, officers reportedly used them over and over again in what protesters described as a relentless assault on the thousands of activists gathered near City Hall.
