DENVER (AP) - Wall Street protesters who were removed from a park next to the state Capitol plan another rally Saturday.

The protest is one of at least two planned across Colorado in Denver and in Boulder in support of the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Colorado State Patrol and Denver police arrested 23 people Friday as they cleared a camp at Lincoln Park, a state-owned city block across a street from the Capitol.

Saturday morning, a small group of protesters slept on the sidewalk at Civic Center Park across from Lincoln Park where 19 Colorado State Patrol cruisers and troopers were parked overnight.

The rally in Denver is planned at noon at Civic Center Park, while a rally near the Pearl Street Mall in Boulder started at 11 a.m.
