Scenes from UChicago about an hour ago, where US flag wielding counter protesters encroached Gaza encampment protesters. Skirmishes broke out, some fights. Then UCPD showed up with gear and have created a physical barrier between the groups.

A garbage truck is set up at North/Halsted, presumably to stop flaggers from heading downtown amid street closures for Mexican Independence Day. But cars are just driving around it and into oncoming traffic lanes. I'm making my way downtown on a divvy for photos @BlockClubCHI
Multiple police officers are checking IDs and directing traffic at Halsted/Chicago. Drivers seem very confused and very frustrated.
