US police arrest a group of protestors in Oakland, California.美國警方在加州奧克蘭逮捕一群示威者。
Police in the US have arrested at least 150 students participating in peaceful nationwide rallies to protest against cuts in educational funding.
美國警方逮捕了至少150名學生，他們參加全國和平集會，抗議教育經費削減。
Baton-wielding police said Thursday they arrested the protestors who blocked a freeway and caused traffic for an hour in California's Oakland region.
揮舞警棍的警察星期四說，他們逮捕的示威誰阻塞高速公路，和在加州的奧克蘭地區導致交通問題一個小時。
According to authorities, one protester suffered serious injuries after jumping from an elevated freeway while officers were making arrests.
根據當局，一名示威者遭受嚴重受傷，在警員作出逮捕時從高架高速公路跳下。
Students, teachers, parents and others rallied in what is being called the "March 4th National Day of Action for Public Education."
The first sign of protest came midday at the University of California at Berkeley, with yoga students holding class outside to avoid crossing picket lines.
Later, several hundred students, faculty and staff rallied at Berkeley and marched to downtown Oakland. Local media reported that a San Francisco City Hall rally drew thousands.
The steep economic downturn has forced states to slash funding to K-12 schools, community colleges and universities to cope with plummeting tax revenues.
Experts said schools and colleges could face more severe financial problems over the next few years as they drain federal stimulus money that temporarily prevented widespread layoffs and classroom cuts.
