“#Cops clash with anti-Trump protesters in NYC<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Cops and anti-Trump protesters clashed in Manhattan on Sunday, leading to at least 11 arrests, police said.<\/p>\n

Video captured by The Post shows the cops shoving protesters and blocking their path on the sidewalk at West 24th Street and 10th Avenue.<\/p>\n

\u201cStop! Stop pushing me!\u201d one protester shouts as police barricade the street.<\/p>\n

A later clip shot by The Post shows protesters hurling insults at cops.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s f\u2013king New York City. There are people getting f\u2013king raped and murdered,\u201d one protester taunts. \u201cGo fight real crime, you f\u2013king pathetic p\u2013sies.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou tell people to get on the f\u2013king sidewalk, then you push us off the fucking sidewalk,\u201d another says. \u201cThis is America, right?\u201d<\/p>\n

The footage shows that most protesters were on the sidewalk.<\/p>\n

According to police, five people were issued summonses for disorderly conduct, three were charged with disorderly conduct or obstruction and released, and one was charged with obstruction and resisting arrest.<\/p>\n

Two others were in custody but charges were pending.<\/p>\n

Among the people charged was a 38-year-old man with Columbia University identification but no press credentials, and a 27-year-old California man who said he was working on a documentary \u2014 but also did not have city press credentials. <\/p>\n

The NYPD tried to draw a distinction between journalists and those it officially recognizes through the issuance of a press pass.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll arrested individuals from today\u2019s protests have been verified to not be NYPD credentialed members of the press,\u201d the department said on Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Anti-Trump demonstrators had gathered at Madison Square Park to confront pro-Trump caravans crisscrossing the New York region ahead of Tuesday\u2019s presidential election.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The anti-Trump group marched to the West Side Highway, before dispersing after concluding the Trump caravans were likely avoiding Manhattan.<\/p>\n

One group of truck-driving Trump supporters stopped traffic for an unspecified amount of time on New Jersey\u2019s Garden State Parkway, video posted to Twitter showed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

NYPD was not immedia<\/a>tely able to provide further details.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, pro-Trump demonstrators also blocked traffic on the Mario Cuomo Bridge in Tarrytown on Sunday, Twitter footage shows<\/a>.<\/p>\n

New York State Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n
