SAN FRANCISCO -- Anti-Wall Street protesters are marching again through San Francisco's Financial District as they target banks for what they claim are unfair housing practices and foreclosures.

More than 300 people began marching late Saturday afternoon along Market Street as members of Occupy SF were being escorted by dozens of San Francisco police officers on foot, motorcycles and vans.

Many of the protesters chanted, "Banks got bailed out! We got sold out!" as some even tried to get inside a Wells Fargo bank branch until police officers wearing riot gear moved them out of the area.

Occupy SF member Amitai Heller said the group planned to camp out in front of a Chase Bank branch to protest unfair housing practices and foreclosures, especially against minorities.

The march late Saturday afternoon concluded three separate smaller marches held earlier in the city's Bayview, Castro and Tenderloin districts.
