Two protesters have been marched into police headquarters in Brisbane, in what could be the first arrests from the 13 protest going on around the city.
It's not clear which protest the women were at, or what they are in trouble over, but they had been carrying a banner.

Police later told AAP two women were being spoken to by officers for having unspecified prohibited items.
But a spokeswoman said they had not been formally arrested.
About 6000 officers are braced for what will be the biggest day of protests on the sidelines of the G20 world leaders' summit underway this weekend.
