BERKELEY — Police are facing criticism for not acting more forcefully against masked agitators who threw rocks and set fires during a Feb. 1 campus protest against alt-right provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, leading to the cancellation of his 8 p.m. show at UC Berkeley’s Pauley Ballroom. But a UC Berkeley police sergeant who was on duty at the protest denied allegations on social media and other various media outlets that police were told to stand down and do nothing. And a university spokesman said what police did was “completely consistent” with the 2012 Robinson-Edley Report, “Response to Protests on UC Campuses,” prepared in the wake of a 2011 pepper-spray incident at UC Davis and confrontations at UC Berkeley a few days earlier.

“While many in the public seem to be focused on the fact that there was one arrest that night, there’s another number far more important to the university,” Mogulof said. “In the context of the chaos, and that a crowd of 1,500 people had been infiltrated by as many as 150 members of a violent paramilitary group, there were only six minor injuries. “Those people did not come to lock arms and sing ‘We Shall Overcome,'” Mogulof continued. “If the police had waded into that crowd in an attempt to make arrests, there would almost certainly have been violent confrontations leading to serious injury among innocent bystanders.”.

On Thursday, UC Berkeley police made two additional arrests in connection with an assault on a member of the UC Berkeley College Republicans, Typical of the criticism surfacing in various media is a Feb, 2 Epoch Times report citing allegations on Twitter that riot police were ordered to stand down and showing a photo from a discussion forum on the news aggregation site Reddit showing police standing inside a building, “Here is a pic I got after the speech cancellation of nearly 100 SWAT and campus police sitting inside the student union building doing NOTHING while people were getting beaten outside,” the extra wedge ballet sock forum user is quoted by Epoch, “WHO told them to stand down?”..

UC Police Sgt. Nicolas Hernandez, who was on duty during the protest and reached at the UC Police Department on Friday, said there was no blanket statement to do nothing. “I was never told to stand down,” Hernandez said, “but as far as what general orders were for what the command staff were doing, I can’t say. “I was part of a team that rescued someone who got injured,” Hernandez said. That person eventually received medical attention, he added. Mogulof said UC police are involved in “a very serious investigation” with the goal of bringing the masked agitators, sometimes referred to as “black bloc anarchists,”  to justice, and that other departments are studying the group as well.
