The Travis County Attorney Delia Garza has dismissed all criminal charges against the protesters who were arrested on the University of Texas at Austin campus on Wednesday, according to spokeswoman Diana Melendez.
The county attorney’s office says 57 people were charged with criminal trespassing and that all the cases “lack sufficient probable cause to proceed.”
On Wednesday, Texas state troopers in riot gear, including some on horseback, broke up a group of pro-Palestinian protesters at the university, resulting in the arrests.
Amelia Kimball, an associate managing editor at The Daily Texan, described 'tense interactions' and 'physical struggles between police and students' on campus on Wednesday.
