The daughter of U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., was arrested Thursday during anti-Israel protests at Columbia University, according to law enforcement sources.
According to sources, Isra Hirsi was taken into custody by the New York Police Department and placed in flex cuffs or zip ties.
He will face trespassing charges. According to the NYPD, she was one of more than 100 people who received trespassing summonses.
Hirsi was released from New York Police Department headquarters several hours later.
Earlier in the day, Hirsi claimed she was suspended from Barnard College, near Columbia, for "standing in solidarity with Palestinians facing genocide."
On Wednesday, during a congressional hearing on Capitol Hill, Omar questioned Columbia administrators about anti-Israel activism on the Ivy League campus.
During the hearing, Omar sounded the alarm about what she called an "attack" with a "toxic chemical substance" at an anti-Israel protest at Columbia University. However, according to court documents, the substance was a non-toxic flatulence spray called "Liquid A--" and "Wet Farts."
