THEY ARE GETTING READY FOR THE WORSE THE BEST THEY CAN. >> THANK YOU. >>> NYPD IS INVESTIGATING THE ACCIDENTAL FIRING OF A POLICE OFFICER'S WEAPON. IT HAPPENS INSIDE OF HAMILTON HALL. THE OFFICER WAS USING THE FLASHLIGHT ON TOP OF HIS FIREARM WHEN HE DISCHARGED THE WEAPON. THERE WERE PROTESTERS IN THE AREA WHERE THE SHOTS WERE FIRED AND NO ONE WAS HURT. WE ARE SEEING POLICE OFFICERS BROUGHT INTO BREAKUP ENCAMPMENTS. OVERNIGHT POLICE CLASH WITH PROTESTERS AT KIRKLAND STATE UNIVERSITY AFTER THEY OCCUPIED THE SCHOOL'S LIBRARY. JONATHAN, YESTERDAY, WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE POLICE TRYING TO BREAK DOWN THE ENCAMPMENT ON CAMPUS, WHAT IS THE SITUATION TODAY? >> THE PROTESTERS WERE CLEARED OUT EARLY YESTERDAY MORNING. THE ENCAMPMENT WAS DISMANTLED IN THE AFTERNOON. OVERNIGHT, NO PROTEST MATERIALIZED ON CAMPUS. THERE IS AN INCREASED POLICE PRESENCE. THERE ARE NOT A LOT OF STUDENTS AROUND BECAUSE ALL IN PERSON ASSES WERE CANCELED. THEY WERE MOVED ONLINE. 1000 OR SO PROTESTERS, CAME FACE-TO-FACE WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT THAT WAS CALLED HERE BY UCLA. 210 STUDENTS WERE ARRESTED. FACULTY MEMBERS SAID THAT THINGS WERE RELATIVELY PEACEFUL UNTIL POLICE ARRIVED ON SCENE. THE CHANCELLOR IS FACING CALLS TO STEP DOWN BECAUSE OF THAT DECISION TO CALL IN LAW ENFORCEMENT. >> FROM YOUR VANTAGE POINT THERE, IN CALIFORNIA, DO THE PRESIDENTS REMARKS YESTERDAY MIRROR FROM POLICE THE ACTION TAKEN ACROSS THE COUNTRY THAT SIGNALS A KIND OF SHIFT IN THESE PROTEST. >> I THINK THAT IS CORRECT. THE PRESIDENTS STATEMENT AND THE INCREASED POLICE PRESENCE SPEAKS TO A SHIFTING NATURE AND TONING THESE PROTESTS. ON THESE CAMPUSES WE ARE SEEING VIOLENT PROTESTS ARRIVED. THERE ARE CONCERNS THAT THEY ARE BEING FUELED BY OUTSIDE BAD ACTORS. A PERFECT EXAMPLE LOOKING AT NEW YORK CITY WHERE OFFICIALS SAID THAT HALF OF ALL OF THE PROTESTERS ARRESTED HAD NO AFFILIATION WITH THE CAMPUS AND THE SCHOOLS THAT THEY WERE PROTESTING AT. WHAT THAT SPEAKS TO, WHAT THEIR MOTIVES MIGHT BE, DOES TOUCH ON
