Dozens of pro-Palestinian protests clashed with police at Brooklyn College on Thursday, prompting the arrest of at least 14 people. The chaos came just one day after 80 protesters who aggressively took over and occupied a library at Columbia University were arrested.
The clashes with police just outside Brooklyn College were frenzied and chaotic, coming after officers had told the students and activists who set up tents on campus to disperse. Several videos of the incident show police and protesters shoving each other in the melee as the situation spilled into the nearby streets.
“Videos show activists, many of whom were wearing keffiyehs, yelling and swearing as police officers attempted to get the unruly crowd under control. ‘Stop shoving people! Stop f–king shoving people,’ one female protester yelled,” according to the New York Post, which reported 14 people had been taken into custody.
