The Los Angeles Police Department is clearing the encampment here
at the University of Southern California.
If you take a look from above,
this is the view inside.
This clearing effort started just a little bit ago this
morning.
Now our NBC crew that is on the ground here
with me was at the gate where this encampment has
been housed Over the last week or so.
A member with the LAPD opened the gate in about
30 pro Palestinian protesters.
Walked out peacefully. Unclear if anyone was arrested,
but it doesn't appear that any arrest,
at least at this hour,
have been made this morning.
This all comes after organizers say they received a notice
from university officials yesterday and according to Annenberg Media,
organizers of the encampment were told yesterday quote the encampment
has to go down,
that it quote violates policies and the law,
but no deadline was given.
Meanwhile, the protesters were also given an alternative free speech
area.
So about a week ago,
nearly 100 people were arrested here.
But this morning, it appears to be peaceful Joe.
All right, Adrian, thank you so much.
