The American flag was re-raised at City College of New York after anti-Israel protesters removed it and replaced it with a Palestinian flag at the Harlem Heights campus.
Video from Wednesday morning captured members of the NYPD standing atop the base of the flagpole as they worked to remove the quad color flag, where they ripped it from the rope before tossing it to the ground.
The American flag was subsequently raised back up during an impromptu ceremony along with a speech from Daughtry.
“An incredible scene and proud moment as we have assisted @CityCollegeNY in restoring order on campus, culminating in raising Old Glory once again on their campus flagpole,” NYPD Deputy Commissioner Kaz Daughtry wrote on X.
The Palestinian flag had been flying at CCNY since protesters raised it last week when they set up an encampment at the public institute.
Protesters clashes with police at the Harlem CUNY campus Tuesday night, fighting cops who tried to break up the protest and throwing garbage at them.

The pro-Palestinian protesters, many from a group who traveled across Manhattan to protest at different colleges in the city, threw flares at cops and barricaded themselves inside an administrative building.
Currently, City College is holding all of its classes remotely until further notice.
