Speaker. She bluffing lets go out front and good evening. Im Erin Burnett Outfront tonight. The Breaking News Protesters and police facing off as tensions are running high at universities across the United States tonight colleges and universities are now cracking down and propalestinian protesters who have taken over some of the campus this is let me just show you some of the dramatic live pictures what youre looking at here. This massive crowd is in texas, police in riot gear can be seen moving in earlier, tearing down barriers and forcefully arresting students. This was the university of texas at austin. Those students have been camped out on campus and at least 40 students we understand at ut austin were reportedly taken into custody meantime, in new york, protesters are defining a mandatory deadline to tear down bear and camp min and Columbia University it gave the students until 2 00 this afternoon to pack it in, and they did not they defied that order.
