Travis County Attorney Delia Garza said her office is working through the charges filed against protesters as quickly as possible but that the large influx is a burden on the office. #atx
.@HeathKeri reports that the first person arrested at yesterday’s encampment at @UTAustin has been released from jail. This comes a little more than 24 hours after the first arrest was made:

Helping @lilykepner today with Palestine protest coverage @UTAustin. So far much calmer. A couple dozen people are in a circle for a teach in. Activists told me they want to "recenter the focus" of why they're protesting. No expectations of an encampment today. @statesman
People gathered at the mail were chanting earlier. Now people are mostly sitting around and chatting waiting for updates on when people will be released. #txed
I’m at Travis County Jail talking to people who are waiting for arrested protestors to be released. Sending updates to @statesman. There are more than 50 people here, who are now chanting:
INBOX: Statement from @UTAustin regarding today
Some striking images from today taken by @jayjanner and @aaronemartinez for @statesman

A statement from UT: “UT and partner law enforcement agencies dismantled an encampment and arrested several protesters. Baseball size rocks were found strategically placed within the encampment. The majority of protesters are believed to be unaffiliated with the university.”
Protestors have returned to South Mall @UTAustin:
From my @statesman colleague:
Protestors are throwing water on the Tower West entrance, where police just went through.
Chemical spray was used again against protestors at @UTAustin. Protestors retreated, and then moved back up to meet police:
More protestors chant against the police:

I wanted to thank all of you who were so kind to text and call after my head collided with concrete while I was covering the UT protests. Officers and students alike quickly offered a helping hand after my mishap. The flood of good wishes was really touching. I'm fine now. DM
This tick-tock of Wednesday's protest on #UTAustin's campus -- and the heavy-handed police response -- is you want to know what/where/when/how it all really went down.
Confused at what happened at the protest Wednesday? Here is a timeline of what happened at @UTAustin based on what @skyesighp and I directly observed: statesman.com/story/news/loc…

If you're glued to the #UTAustin protest and you're not following @lilykepner right here, you're missing a giant part of the picture.

New from me: T.C. Broadnax will have the highest base salary of any city manager currently leading the 10 largest U.S. cities that use a "council-manager" form of government when he starts in Austin, a @statesman review of salary data shows. statesman.com/story/news/loc…
Texas Democrats are denouncing the layoffs UT announced last week. UT says it was complying with a law banning DEI offices at public universities but @TexasAaup says the people who lost their jobs were no longer working on DEI policies. More info here: kut.org/education/2024…
Support the Austin American-@statesman's watchdog journalism and our paper's own watchdog, Ino, by donating to our strike fund! #Day3 #StatesmanOnStrike bit.ly/AASGuild Photo and pup creds to @sara_diggins 💜🦇💜
ANNOUNCEMENT: OUR STRIKE FUND JUST SURPASSED $40,000! 💜🦇💜 Thank you to everyone who has donated, shared or otherwise supported Austin American-@statesman reporters as we strike in protest of @Gannett's bad-faith bargaining. Keep it up at bit.ly/AASGuild. #Day3
Ino supports local news and knows the value of journalists despite not being able to read. Too bad Gannett can’t figure it out. @AustinNewsGuild
Nyeka's family's been in Austin longer than @UTAustin. Her great x3 grandfather was enslaved in Travis County. This year, she became the 1st in her family to attend UT, through a DEI program. Now it's cut. What that means for her & students like her: t.ly/Jh320
We’re out on the S Congress bridge with the @AustinNewsGuild who are on strike in protest of @Gannett’s unfair labor practices and bad-faith bargaining. Don’t cross the digital picket line, avoid clicking on @statesman article while their workers are on strike ✊
After two years+ working for Gannett, I make LESS money than journalists who joined our newsroom more recently and with less experience. And MUCH less than what’s needed to live in Austin. @AustinNewsGuild has been trying to bargain, but running up against Unfair Labor Practices.
Journalists at the @statesman are on strike in protest of @Gannett’s unfair labor practices and bad-faith bargaining. Please support us by sharing our strike fund, joining us at noon at the South Congress Bridge and not crossing the digital picket line. bit.ly/AASGuild
I’m on strike for the first time in my career as I join my co-workers to fight for fair, livable wages for my younger colleagues. We’ve seen our newsroom shrink by almost 79% since 2012, and that cannot continue.
