Officers told group members they would be arrested if they did not move out of the way. They say the protesters said they would not leave, so they were arrested on trespassing charges.

Terry is from Florida. He founded the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue and has been arrested dozens of times at anti-abortion protests.
