San Francisco authorities offered Friday to move Occupy campers to another site, a day after the most recent round of violent clashes left a police officer injured, officials said.

In the latest example of clashes that have occurred elsewhere in the country, the San Francisco protesters became violent after officers set up barricades around their encampment, police said.

One officer sustained a hand injury, and several officers noticed that a laser was being projected in their area, said Sgt. Michael Andraychak of the San Francisco Police Department.
