Chicago Police respond to clash between protesters at DePaul University
CHICAGO -- Tensions continue to run high at college campuses across the country as students protest Israel 's war in Gaza. On Sunday, clashes erupted at DePaul as pro-Palestinian protesters were met with counter-pro- Israel protesters. At one point, school administrators called Chicago Police to intervene. Demonstrators, who have been mostly peaceful at the encampment they set up six days ago at the quad, were confronted by a group of pro- Israel i protesters.
Officers lined up between the two groups, and some of the pro-Israel protesters spilled into the street, obstructing traffic. At the time, the university issued an alert urging students to avoid the area and to remain inside their buildings. Later the school posted on its 'X' account that students can leave their buildings after being alerted to remain indoors but to avoid the Quad and Fullerton when leaving the Richardson Library, SAC, McGowan North/South, and University Hall.
