Occupy Oakland occupies an undisclosed location -- wacky fun ensues [View all]

While hundreds of NYPD officers were deployed to intimidate OWS protesters last night in Union Square, Occupy Oaklanders organized a non-publicized occupation of an undisclosed location in solidarity with occupations around the country and to give occupy Oakland a new organizational home base.
In the cover of night, a dedicated group of Occupy Oakland protesters were able to set up a new camp without any harassment from the over bearing local police force by keeping the location a secret, until this morning at about 7:15am. An estimated 30 people held the space through out the night, while having a bit of fun trolling OPD on twitter with both clever & mis-leading tips as to where the new camp was being erected.
OPD is never going to find the #OO #SecretSolidarityCamp. Its in 1995. Bring rave pants, bad ecstasy, manic panic, and noserings! @GonzOakland
#OPD will sure be surprised when they figure out #OO is camped out under the Eastmont substation
@OaklandElle
We are on OPD headquarters roof setting up tents. #oo @Jayron26 @OakFoSho @Ergoat @BreaKBeatJunkEE @VizFoSho
. . . The re-occupation continues as I am writing this, police say they will remain on the scene until all tents have been put away. Follow my tweets, or watch @BellaEiko on her Ustream channel to stay up to date on the unfolding events in Oakland, CA.
