Pro-Palestinian activists who took over and occupied Richard Saller’s department on Wednesday were detained and taken into custody by the police before filming a desire movie outside and apparently thrashing the place.
The protesters “barricaded themselves inside Building 10, the mayor’s office, located in Main Quad, at 5: 30 a. m. Wednesday night, which marks Stanford’s last day of lessons for spring third”, the Stanford Daily reported.
” Around ten pupils are encircling the tower with linked arms, while about 50 people are.” Once outside, protest barricaded windows with bicycle locks, bars, stairs and chair and covered surveillance cameras with tin foil. Inside, protesters spray painted on a window,’ Our office then,’ and chanted,’ Palestine may be free, we may free Palestine,'” the student newspaper reported.
Two police officers are seen attempting to enter the locked tower with some sort of hammer in a film that was posted on Liberate Stanford’s Instagram website. A police officer was forced to forcibly break a glass window in a subsequent picture to enter the building as history activists chanted “free, completely Palestine” and” no fairness, no peace.”
Student protesters occupying the mayor’s office broadcast their expectations before being arrested, including amnesty for all student demonstrators on Stanford’s school and a withdrawal from Israel this quarter.

” Law enforcement has arrested 13 people, and the tower has been cleared”, school director Dee Mostofi said in an email to The Associated Press, as reported by ABC. The building’s interior and exterior have suffered significant harm.
The Stanford building has been taken over by pro-Palestine demonstrations twice in the last few months.
