Four people from a Georgia evangelical group were arrested Saturday at gay pride celebrations in St. Petersburg after they violated a city order restricting demonstrators to a "free speech" zone a block from the festival.

Police also arrested a woman at the celebration who allegedly threw a drink at one of the protestors. The beverage splashed several other people standing on the sidelines.
