Organizers told CBS Station WBZ about 3,000 people joined the protest, and said the arrests were an act of civil disobedience intended to send a message that the lender's practices were unfair.
"They wanted to be arrested, and we obliged," Boston Police Commissioner Edward F. Davis said.
Bank of America spokesman T.J. Crawford dismissed the demonstration as a publicity stunt.
