CNN: Pro-Palestine Protesters Get Pepper Sprayed By Police at University of Texas

EXCERPT:

LAVANDERA: “Well, now, we’re kind of at a standoff where the crowd that you see behind me is basically just confronting a number of offices and now they’re shooting pepper spray into the crowd. Sit tight here for a second. They’re trying to get people to disperse. So that just happened, those officers firing pepper spray, it appears or some sort of spray at protesters gathered here. Just moments ago, Erin, in this area, there had been a bus that was taking some of the people who had been arrested earlier. This is one of the protesters hit by the pepper spray. They’re calling for medics. So trying to keep an eye, excuse me, Erin, we’re trying to keep an eye on exactly what’s going on behind me. But this is an area where the bus that was taking away several of the protesters was — a number of these protesters were blocking these people or trying to block — excuse me, the bus from leaving the area, but we saw more than a dozen protesters that were arrested and taken away on that bus. We are told that they’re probably being taken downtown to be processed.”
