Police disperse pro-Palestinian demonstrators at UCLA
- Police dispersed between 150 and 200 pro-Palestinian demonstrators at UCLA on the evening of Wednesday, April 30, 2025, near Royce Hall and later in Westwood Village.
- The protest was organized by Students for Justice in Palestine to show the documentary film 'The Encampments' and to mark one year since violence occurred on campus.
- Police set up metal barriers around Royce Hall for anticipated May Day demonstrations and blocked access to Dickson Plaza, where the rally was initially planned but later changed by organizers.
- Steve Lurie, UCLA's associate vice chancellor, stated that the protesters were breaking campus policies by setting up screens to show the documentary, and that efforts were made to prevent this. Meanwhile, three demonstrators were arrested for assaulting a security guard and obstructing police.
- SJP stated that police advanced on protesters wielding batons and rubber bullets while riding motorcycles that came close to striking students, and Lurie expressed that although some protesters are eager to return, he does not anticipate encampments will be reestablished.
