Dozens were arrested Tuesday night after the NYPD cleared out the pro-Palestinian encampment at the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC .Police were seen hauling away dozens of demonstrators on an NYPD corrections bus as their supporters cheered them on from the streets. Officers surrounded the encampment at FIT and moved in on the crowd after announcing that those who refused to leave would be taken into custody for trespassing.
At this point, it's unclear if the NYPD was specifically called in by FIT to clear out the protesters and dismantle their tents.Meanwhile, hundreds of protesters gathered Monday evening at Manhattan's Hunter College, just blocks away from the star-studded 2024 Met Gala. Demonstrators attempted to march on the celebrity-filled fashion event, but were stopped roughly a block away by the NYPD. According to authorities, 27 people were arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.
