Oakland City Councilmember Carroll Fife was at the school and says she witnessed people getting 'roughed up' by that security staff.
People occupying Parker Elementary School in Oakland Thursday night clashed with district security officers who were trying to remove them from the grounds.
The protesters have been living on campus since May hoping their sit-in would reverse the decision to close the school. On Thursday, their attempt to stand their ground turned into a confrontation."We had people forcefully getting hurt and abused on this site," said protester Misty Cross."I don't know who authorized this as the school board is out of session," said OUSD School Board member Mike Hutchinson.
The group at Parker Elementary claims they were told district staff were only coming in to remove items set to be taken to other school sites. After sending out a text calling for reinforcements, the group made their way inside once again. And they say the fight is far from over.
