Timeline

Reports from Samdesk indicate that protesters have been removed and the NYU encampment dismantled. The campus is closed, with police positioned at all entrances.

According to FDNY, the fire has been contained.

According to news sources, NYPD officers are stationed in the Paulson Center lobby. A small group of counter-protestors are also reported to be chanting in the area.

Citizen user video shows the group marching on the street below.

Pro-Palestinian protesters from NYU continue to march, now heading westbound on East 13th Street, with the group divided between the sidewalk and the roadway.

Pro-Palestinian protesters from NYU are now marching north on University Place, having crossed East 10th Street.

Pro-Palestinian protesters from NYU are currently marching northbound on Mercer Street, with the group split between the sidewalk and roadway.

An update via a tweet from NYPD Deputy Commissioner states participants threw items ranging from water bottles to chairs at officers clearing Gould Plaza at the request of NYU officials.

The address reported for this incident has changed to Washington Square Park.

Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters from NYU have gathered in Washington Square Park.

Recent reports indicate over 100 people were arrested following ongoing protests at NYU.

Officers at N.Y.U. moved into the crowd of pro-Palestinian protesters at around 8:30 p.m., after university leaders said the group had breached school barricades and behaved in a “disorderly, disruptive and antagonizing” manner. It was not immediately clear how many people had been taken into custody.

According to a news update police made arrests at a third university late Monday, moving to quell a demonstration at New York University after school officials warned that hundreds of protesters would face consequences if they did not leave a campus plaza. The action followed arrests Monday morning at Yale and last week at Columbia.

Pro-Palestinian protesters have set up an encampment at The New School on Monday. Videos shared online show tents with phrases like "liberated zone" set up at the school. Similar demonstrations are ongoing at Columbia, NYU, and Yale.

Incident reported at 75 5th Ave.
