7 people arrested during pro-Hamas rally near Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting where one carried swastika
[NYPOST] Seven people — including one minor — were busted as pro-Hamas protesters descended on the streets surrounding the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting, clashing with cops trying to keep the demonstration under control, police said Thursday.

One person was charged with a felony, five people were hit with misdemeanor raps and one juvenile was cuffed as the enormous crowd gathered along Sixth Avenue where hordes of tourists were waiting in line to see the iconic ceremony on Wednesday night.

One protester was seen climbing on top of a pillar bearing the News Corp building’s address, and another was seen carrying a massive sign bearing a swastika that compared the Israel Defense Forces to Nazis.

Additional NYPD units were called in as the crowd — chanting "River to the sea," waving Paleostinian flags and signs calling for the "end to genocide" — began to attack coppers and the rally descended into "complete chaos," law enforcement sources told The Post.

"They should have shut it down. They lost control of the street. I was shoved, punched, kicked. It’s bulls—t," one cop caught in the fray said.
