``Harris and his supporters set up tents on his front lawn on Friday afternoon and refused to leave. According to Occupy Our Homes Atlanta's Tim Franzen, who was one of the people in attendance, about 15 to 20 people joined Harris and spent the night in the yard. Police returned the next afternoon and warned the protesters that they had 30 minutes to leave. Four people, including Harris, refused to do so and were arrested.

Overall, five people were charged with criminal trespass. Two of those five people also received an additional charge of obstruction of the law for attaching their arms to a PVC pipe and threading it through a trash can filled with cement in order to prevent officers from removing them from Harris' driveway.
