1:22Now PlayingNearly two dozen people were arrested after anti-Israel demonstrators took over the Brooklyn Museum, clashing with police and dropping a banner from the roof, cops said.
Twenty-two people were collared yesterday amid the massive Friday rally, including serial protester Alvin Dan, who was slapped with an assault charge along with resisting arrest and obstruction of justice, cops said.
Dan, 32, of Staten Island, was previously busted at anti-Israel demonstrations protesting the Met Gala in April as well as last year’s iconic Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Seven others were given summonses, according to police, who earlier said 34 people had been taken into custody.
During Friday’s demonstration, rowdy protesters scaled the building before rappelling down its side with climbing equipment and making their way into the museum, police sources said of the demonstration, which included nearly 1,000 people.
Demonstrators then set up an encampment inside, while others scampered to the roof to unfurl a giant bannister reading “Free Palestine” and “Divest From Genocide” over the front of the building.
