Mayor Adams: The Presence of the Outside Agitators Showed We Have To Move On for the Safety of Children at Columbia

‘It was clear after I was briefed probably two days ago — the extent of the outside agitators’

EXCERPT:

ADAMS: “It was clear after I was briefed, probably two days ago, of the extent of the outside agitators, as Columbia University indicated in their letter to us, that we had to do something. And I really encouraged them to look at this for the safety of the students, for the facilities after a break it into Hamilton Hall. I think that the leadership at the school realized that we -- our concern was actually materializing. And we had to really move in for the safety of those children and -- and do it in the right way.”
