The number of Occupy Oakland protesters gathered at the Port of Oakland was thinning fast Wednesday night, and organizers were calling for demonstrators to reconvene at the civic center plaza downtown.
About 8:30 p.m., a group of organizers on a flatbed truck drove through the crowd and asked them to reconvene at the plaza at 10 p.m. to celebrate. "This night is not over," one said through a bullhorn. "Meet us there. This night is not over."
Trucker Manny Singh honked his horn and pumped his fist in support.
The port was officially shut down late Wednesday, port officials said. The night shift was supposed to report at 7 p.m., then 9 p.m., before the shift was cancelled entirely.
