Prosecutors charge 10 people at UC Irvine after pro-Palestinian protests

Two University of California professors also included in charges of failing to disperse after demonstrations in spring

Prosecutors in southern California have charged 10 people, including two professors, with failing to disperse during a pro-Palestinian protest last spring at the University of California, Irvine, that led to a clash with police, officials said Wednesday.

The Orange county district attorney’s office said those charged included two UCI professors and four students. All are due to appear in court on 16 October to be arraigned on misdemeanor charges, the office said.
