MORNINGSIDE HEIGHTS, Manhattan (PIX11) – An NYPD officer’s gun was accidentally fired while protesters were being removed from a Columbia University building on Tuesday night, according to authorities.
Columbia’s administration asked the NYPD to handle protesters inside Hamilton Hall. No one was injured after the shot was fired, police said.
Around 300 people were arrested in protests at Columbia University and City College on Tuesday, according to the NYPD. The mayor and NYPD have claimed “outside agitators” influenced protests at the colleges and said 29% of the protesters arrested at Columbia were not students.
At City College, 60% of the individuals arrested were not affiliated with the school, officials claimed.
Colleges are negotiating with students, who are asking the schools to divest from companies that support Israel. Columbia has offered to share more information on its finances and review it with the divestment committee.
Instead, Columbia is looking into making investments in health and education in Gaza.
