For this edition of Scenes of the City we tagged along for the fourth week of BART protests in downtown SF. The protesters stayed out of the paid area of the BART stations until they made their way to the Embarcadero. In the Embarcadero Station, one man crossed over to the paid area. Two arrests were made over the evening.

Everything began to come to a head as protesters entered the Embarcadero Station– the end of the road.
The police continued to escort the crowd back up Market Street to the Civic Center Station.
By the end, messages were garbled at best. They all said they'd be back next week–hopefully they'll figure out something to agree on by then.
