CNN —At least 25 people were arrested after setting up multiple pro-Palestinian encampments on UCLA’s campus Monday that police said were unlawful, according to a statement from the UCLA Police Department.
A CNN analysis found that some of the most dramatic attacks caught on camera that night were committed by people outside UCLA – not the university students and faculty who were eventually arrested.
A pro-Palestinian demonstrator is taken into custody Monday outside Dodd Hall at UCLA.
Around 8 p.m., about 25 people were arrested for willful disruption of university operations, the police statement said.
Tensions have simmered on the UCLA campus over how the university has responded to protesters and counterprotesters in recent months.
