Less
than half of the pro-Palestine protesters arrested at New York University last week after
refusing to vacate the campus were members of the academic institution, the
university said on Wednesday.
Of
the 133 protesters arrested on April 22 at Gould Plaza on campus, 65 were
students, faculty or other employees of NYU, located in the Greenwich Village
neighborhood on the west side of lower Manhattan. It is the largest private
university in the United States by enrollment.
"I
never thought that as president I would need to rely on the NYPD to secure the
safety of our community," President Linda G. Mills said in the statement.
Mills
added that several buildings on campus had to be locked down that evening for
security reasons.
At
Columbia University in northern
Manhattan's Morningside Heights neighborhood, Hamas supporters who were not
students or staff were involved in violent protests, according to the city's
mayor.
New
York City Mayor Eric Adams, speaking on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on
Wednesday, revealed that "outside agitators," including one whose
husband was convicted for terrorism, played a key role in the anti-Israel
protests at Columbia.
Manhattan
District Attorney Alvin Bragg said on Wednesday it was unclear how many of the
280 arrested at Columbia were outsiders.
NYPD
Deputy Commissioner of Intelligence and Counterterrorism Rebecca Weiner said at
a news conference on Wednesday alongside Adams, that going through the names of
those arrested to determine whether they are affiliated with the universities
will "take time."
