CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) -

Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation announced at 3:21 p.m. Friday that Marshall and Frazier parks are back open.

Occupy protesters were using the parks through the week of the Democratic National Convention. Marshall Park was base camp for the group.

The group was given the notice to clear out early Friday morning. The deadline passed at noon and Occupy Charlotte protesters left Marshall Park peacefully, according to CMPD.
