Freelance Journalist (and labor activist) Talia Jane:

This morning, students at #Columbia University picketed outside the homes of three trustees.

At two of the three locations, random harassers suckerpunched student picketers. At one, a car drove into a student. NYPD arrested the victim.

The attacker is Reuven Kahane, a cousin of Meir Kahane, the late fascist founder of the JDL and the murderous #Kahanist movement in occupied Palestine

Student picketer who was struck by Kahane this morning was detained and is in the hospital, handcuffed to a bed, awaiting x-rays. Early reports of a wrist injury.

but wait... it gets worse...
