THAT'S THE VERY LATEST FROM HERE. >> THANK YOU. AND AFTER HOURS OF OCCUPYING ALUMNI PARK, THOSE PROTESTERS PEACEFULLY SURRENDERED AND WERE THEN TAKEN AWAY BY POLICE IN WHITE VANS. SOME OF THEM WENT TO THE LAPD METROPOLITAN DETENTION CENTER, AND NBC 4'S MACY JENKINS IS LIVE IN DOWN L.A. WITH WHAT'S NEXT FOR THEM. MACY? >> Reporter: HI, WE'RE LIVE HERE DOWN OUTSIDE WHERE DOZENS OF PROTESTERS, IT STARTED OFF AS DOZENS BUT NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT A GROUP OF ALMOST 100. LET ME HAVE MY PHOTOGRAPHER DAVID GREGORY TAKE A PUSH IN THERE. THEY ARE NOW CHANTING. THEY BROUGHT THE PROTEST AND IT LOOKS LIKE WHAT THE USC CAMPUS LOOKED LIKE EARLIER TODAY. WE WERE AT THE 76 STATION WHEN WE HEARD ONE OFFICER TELL A SMALL GROUP, IT WILL BE A FEW HOURS BEFORE THE FELLOW PROTESTERS ARE BOOKED AND PROCESSED. WATCH AS DOZENS OF PRO-PALESTINIAN PROTESTERS ARE LOADED INTO WHITE POLICE VANS, DETAINED AND TRANSPORTED TO POLICE STATIONS DOWN AND SOUTH L.A. >> THEY WERE ALL SITTING AND GETTING LINED UP. >> Reporter: WE MET MELISSA BOWEN WAITING FOR HER FRIEND TO BE RELEASED. AS OFFICERS WORK TO DISPERSE THE PROTESTERS ON CAMPUS, ANOTHER GROUP TOOK TO THE STREETS MARCHING AROUND CAMPUS AND SHUTTING DOWN MULTIPLE INTERSECTIONS THROUGHOUT THE EARLY EVENING. >> THERE ARE NO OFFICERS WITH THIS GROUP. THAT'S ONE THING I NOTICED EARLIER. WE WERE AT THE INTERSECTION OF JEFFERSON AND VERMONT AND THEY WERE BLOC TRAFFIC. THEY DIDN'T HAVE POLICE PRESENCE BECAUSE ALL THE POLICE OFFICERS WERE ON CAMPUS. >> I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT. I THINK YOU CAN'T JUST WALK BY AND WATCH THESE THINGS HAPPEN AND NOT SUPPORT THE PEOPLE THAT NEED YOUR SUPPORT THE MOST RIGHT NOW. >> Reporter: SOME STUDENT WATCHING THE UPHEAVAL FROM A DISTANCE JUST THREE DAYS BEFORE THE END OF THE SEMESTER. >> I THINK IT IS GOOD THAT PEOPLE COULD HAVE THEIR OWN OPINION. EVERYTHING IN 2024 NOW IS SO SUPPRESSING. YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR OWN OPINION. >> Reporter: AS THE LONG DAY STRETCHED INTO THE NIGHT, PROTESTERS GATHERED AT LAPD'S DOOR STEPS, DETERMINED TO CONTINUE EXERCISING THEIR FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHT TO PROTEST. >> IT'S GOING TO BE A WHILE APPARENTLY. WE'RE GOING TO WAIT HERE. OUR OTHER FRIENDS ARE DOWNTOWN WAITING FOR TWO OTHER PEOPLE WE WERE WITH. HOPEFULLY IT WON'T BE TOO LONG. >> Reporter: I SPOKE WITH A FEW LAPD OFFICERS ABOUT AN HOUR AGO. THEY WERE STATIONED OUTSIDE OF THE PRECINCT BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE 911 EMERGENCY WORKERS WERE SAFE AND SOUND AS THEY WERE COMING AND GOING FROM WORK TO MAKE SURE THEY WERE NOT DISTURBED BY THE PROTESTERS. WE OVERHEARD THEM TELLING THE CROWD, THEY PLAN TO BE HERE ALL
