More protesters have been arrested as students continue to demonstrate at US universities.
Police dismantled a Pro-Palestine camp set up in front of Royce Hall at the University of California, making more than 200 arrests.
US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking that the protests turned to mayhem after midnight and fights erupted when pro-Israel counter protesters tried to storm the camp.
He said that flares and fireworks were launched over the encampment, and although no one was killed or seriously injured, it was pretty ugly and threatening.
At least 2000 people total have been arrested at protests across the country in the last few weeks.
