Barnard said an independent investigator would be looking into the issue and that its safety protocols would be evaluated.
At least six public safety officials at Barnard College in New York City have been placed on leave after a viral video appeared to show the officials pushing a black student against a countertop for failing to show his student ID card.
In a statement, the school confirmed that an incident had taken place and said it was investigating its protocols with the help of an independent investigator. The officials will be on leave pending the completion of the investigation, the statement said. “What I didn’t see coming was when they got the other Public Safety officer come to the side and pin me to the counter,” he told the paper, which published an extensive report on the altercation. “I hadn’t made any threats; all I said was I’m not going to show you my ID. I don’t understand where that came from.”
