Nearly 50 demonstrators were arrested outside an abortion clinic in Melbourne as anti-abortion groups continued to violate court-ordered buffer zones around Central Florida clinics. Police said 45 adults and four children had been arrested. Some of the children were released to their parents. The court injunction bans noise during clinic operations and protests within 36 feet of the clinic. It also bars demonstrators from approaching within 300 feet of patients.
