Pro-Palestinian protesters barricaded the door of a building on New York’s Columbia University campus early on Tuesday morning, April 30, after the university began suspending students who had failed to leave an encampment.

A group of people left the encampment on campus just after midnight and entered Hamilton Hall, the New York Times reported.

Footage by X user @Bwop shows the protesters using chair and tables to barricade a door to the building.

Images published by the Columbia Daily Spectator, the student newspaper, showed broken windows and masked protesters using barricades and zip-ties to hold doors shut.

An NYPD spokesperson told the paper that officers were outside of campus but were not entering. Credit: @Bwog via Storyful
