Anti-Israel protesters armed with flares marched toward NYPD headquarters late Monday after the number of students arrested at NYU reportedly rose to over 150.
Videos of Monday night’s protests show demonstrators holding bright flares over their heads while marching toward One Police Plaza while others waved flags, banged drums and chanted, “Gaza.”
Other clips show NYPD officers in riot gear monitoring protesters who chant, “We will free Palestine, within our lifetime.”
By late Monday, more than 150 protesters had been arrested as the NYU camp was broken up, sources told PIX 11.
