Police arrested five people Wednesday in a crackdown that?s growing by the day in downtown Orlando.

Members of "Food Not Bombs" won't back down from feeding the homeless, even if it means spending a night in jail.

The activists were feeding the homeless near Lake Eola, but their generosity violates a city ordinance that prohibits sharing food with large groups more than twice a year.

"Food Not Bombs" says the law should be changed and will continue to feed the homeless downtown twice a week.
