At least 90 people were arrested Wednesday during a protest on the campus of Dartmouth University, local police said.
The people who were arrested included both students and non-students, Hanover Police Department said in a statement released Thursday. Charges included criminal trespass and resisting arrest, police said.
Ahead of Wednesday’s planned protest, campus security had warned demonstrators that tents or encampments wouldn’t be allowed.
“Once tents were erected, Dartmouth Safety & Security made multiple announcements to participants that they must dispel, and they refused,” Charles B. Dennis, Hanover’s chief of police, said in a media release.
Hanover police and the New Hampshire State Police continued with “multiple” announcements, but some protesters refused to disperse, he said.
