NYPD Deputy Commissioner: ‘These Are Not The Tools of Students Protesting,’ They Are Those of ‘Agitators’

NYPD deputy commissioner Kaz Daughtry responded to protests on the Columbia University campus by noting that “tools” found were not those of organic protesters, but those used by “agitators.”

The Times of Israel quoted deputy commissioner Kaz Daughtry saying, “These are not the tools of students protesting, these are the tools of agitators, of people who were working on something nefarious.”

Daughtry posted to X:
