New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu expressed his appreciation for the swift action taken by local and state police in response to anti-Israel encampments that were illegally set up at Dartmouth College and the University of New Hampshire.
Governor Sununu praised the collaboration between state police and local law enforcement in addressing the encampments, which were in violation of school policies. He acknowledged the efforts of all those involved in providing on-the-ground support to ensure the situation was handled promptly.
While Governor Sununu emphasized the importance of peaceful protests, he made it clear that breaking the law is not acceptable.
The Hanover police reported that a total of ninety individuals were arrested at Dartmouth College for charges related to trespassing and resisting arrest.
Additionally, an unspecified number of individuals were arrested by campus police at the University of New Hampshire, as confirmed by the New Hampshire State Police.
The response from law enforcement authorities at both institutions highlights the commitment to upholding the rule of law and maintaining order on campus grounds.
As the situation unfolds, it is evident that authorities are taking necessary measures to enforce the law and ensure the safety and security of the university communities.
