Capitol police swooped in on protesters unfurling banners at a U.S. Senate office building in Washington on Tuesday as part of the Occupy DC movement, arresting at least six, NBC reported.

Demonstrators stormed the Hart building's atrium and dropped large banners, one which said "End War Now," the other "People for the People." As soon as they displayed their signs, Capitol police arrested them, NBCWashington.com said. Dozens of others ran through the building — which holds the offices of Democratic Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Harry Reid as well as Republican Marco Rubio — with smaller signs, according to NBC.
