The Merchant Exchange Building was shut down by management in advance of the meeting. 

About 25-30 community shareholders did manage to make it into the meeting before Wells executives declared the room full. But one woman who got in reported that the room was largely empty, and another said that many of those in attendance were Wells Fargo employees (this could not be independently confirmed). The woman also said that as soon as one of the community shareholders attempted to speak, they were immediately threatened with arrest and removed from the building.

Police officials said 14 people were arrested during the day of action.
