Contractors spray-paint protesters at CWRU amid Israel-Hamas war | wkyc.com

"This is not who we are as an institution, and I am deeply sorry this ever occurred," Case Western Reserve University President Eric Kaler said after the incident.
"...On Wednesday, CWRU President Eric Kaler announced that the university is investigating an incident involving protesters who were spray-painted upon by contractors in front of the "spirit wall" near Thwing Center.
"I have reviewed video footage, which depicts students blocking the wall as a third-party contractor spray painted directly onto protesters as he attempted to finish painting the wall, and I am disturbed by what occurred," Kaler wrote in a letter to the Case community.
CWRU's Students for Justice in Palestine posted video of the incident on its Instagram account.
