Mike Wendling Some more details from that clash we reported on earlier at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Reporting from Waukesha, Wisconsin Four police officers have reportedly sustained injuries while dispersing protesters at an encampment at Library Hall on Wednesday morning.
Donald Trump addressed campus protests a short while ago at a campaign rally in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Three Dane County deputies sustained injuries related to the physical resistance from protesters, according to a press release from the university.
He described last night's police raid at Columbia as "a beautiful thing to watch". One state trooper was injured after a protester reportedly used a skateboard to strike the officer in the head.
"New York was under siege last night," the former president said, with university leaders "afraid" to take action. Police remain on scene to ensure ongoing protests are safe, the university adds.
He said police "did an incredible job" taking back Hamilton Hall, the academic building that protesters were occupying.
"You know, you're supposed to take care of those buildings. It took a beating. But the police came in and, in exactly two hours, everything was over."
The unofficial Republican presidential nominee said he believes students have been "led astray" and that their protest action is distracting from domestic matters like the crisis at the US southern border.
