On the 6th of May, student protesters at University of Central Florida set up camp at the university’s entrance at Alafaya and University Blvd. Commencement may have come and gone and classes ended for the semester, but the university’s investments in apartheid and genocide are still ongoing. Thus protesters continue to target the university.

As the day wore on, police harassment kept things tense. Anyone stopping a car in the area was pulled over, forcing use of a complex system to deliver supplies without anyone bringing a car into harm’s way.

At one point, one of the university police golf carts showed up with a sound system. After several minutes of lies and crap about the university respecting free speech etc, they broadcast first threats of arrest for unstated “law violations” then came the kicker: they threatened students or staff engaging in “prohibited acts” with explusion or firing (this is on the video).

At about 7PM, cops began blocking off roads near the campsite, and acting in a way to imply a kettle was imminent. No further attack came until the 10PM mess.

At 10PM the shit hit the fan, or so the cops were thinking. A report went out over IG that cops were not letting anyone leave-but the entire camp had already escaped. Unknown if the cops intended arrests but were outsmarted, or if the kettle the cops set up was a bluff like their bike line on May 4 was.
