Dozens were forcibly evicted by police...and some were arrested...during a protest at a 163 year-old rundown museum next to the famous Maracana football stadium in Rio.
About 40 were living on the abandoned indigena museum's grounds.
The building will be razed for a new sports museum...for Rio's hosting of 2014 FIFA World Cup.
