Chaos erupted between anti-Israel protesters and police in Brooklyn after thousands flooded a predominantly Arab and Middle Eastern neighborhood Saturday night.
Held in Bay Ridge, the protests saw thousands of the pro-Palestinian demonstration chant 'move, cops, get out the way. We know you're Israeli-trained' as they descended on the community, stopping traffic and lighting fires in the process.
The protesters, part of a procession billed online as Flood Brooklyn for Palestine, began to clash with cops as night fell, video shows - as their numbers swelled to an estimated 5,000 over the course of the day.
