Multiple people were arrested Monday night after protesters once again clashed with police during a Manhattan demonstration over the subway chokehold death of Jordan Neely.
The chaos erupted outside of the Broadway-Lafayette subway station where Neely was killed by another straphanger, Daniel Penny, a week ago.
Law enforcement sources told The Post multiple people were arrested after what began as a 7 p.m. vigil for Neely inside of the subway station.
Among those cuffed was freelance news photographer Stephanie Keith, according to photos and footage from the scene. Another man, whose face was bloodied, was also apprehended, photos show.
At the start of the vigil inside the station, a handful of people chanted “Jordan Neely” in memory of the homeless 30-year-old who suffered from years of mental illness. The planned event was met with a heavy police presence, social media posts show.
Above the station on the street, social media footage and photos show protesters struggling with cops, leading to arrests.
Neely was placed in a fatal chokehold by ex-Marine Daniel Penny, 24, after Neely was acting erratically and yelling at passengers aboard an uptown F train, according to police and witness accounts.
Penny’s legal team said their client acted in self-defense, claiming Neely was threatening him and fellow riders. His lawyers also said he never intended to harm Neely.
Neely’s family released a statement Monday saying Penny needs to be jailed for his actions.
No charges have been brought against the Long Island resident, though the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office said it is probing the case.
The medical examiner ruled Neely’s death a homicide last week.
Another protest on Saturday over Neely’s death descended into chaos with more than 10 people arrested.
