Law enforcement officials arrested 23 individuals on Saturday following the formation of an encampment at Indiana University Bloomington during ongoing protests. The university's police department reported that a group had set up tents and canopies on Friday night with the intention to occupy the university space indefinitely, which violated school policy regarding temporary or permanent structures.
At around noon ET on Saturday, officers from the Indiana University Police Department and Indiana State Police approached the encampment in the outdoor Dunn Meadow area of the school. Demonstrators were given six verbal warnings to remove the structures, and those who did not comply were detained within the hour.
