The New York Police Department arrested protesters outside occupied Hamilton Hall at around 9:30 p.m. on Tuesday evening. One contingent of officers approached the admissions office entrance, where they pushed protesters to the ground and slammed them with barricades.
Another group approached the main entrance, arresting protesters who had formed a human chain outside the doors. Officers threw down the metal and wooden tables and shattered the glass on the leftmost doors of Hamilton to enter the building.
One protester lay on the ground in front of Hamilton unmoving as police officers stood over them. Three officers then carried the individual away from the building.
Students yelled “shame” as officers gathered around the front entrance of the building, and chants of “NYPD, KKK, IOF, they’re all the same” arose.
At 9:26 p.m., a University spokesperson wrote in a campus update that the decision to authorize NYPD to enter campus “was made to restore safety and order to our community.”
