ATLANTA, GA — A pro-Palenstine and "Stop Cop City" protest held Thursday at Emory University resulted in the use of tear gas and the detainment of multiple people, Fox 5 Atlanta reported on X, formerly Twitter.

Mondoweiss, a group claiming responsibility for the protests, said it is comprised of university students throughout the Atlanta area "who are organizing against Cop City and the genocide of Palestinians."

The Atlanta Public Safety Training Center, which is set to benefit both Atlanta police officers and firefighters, has become known to protesters as "Cop City."
