Atah Kheir Othman. He doesn't look like a student, does he? But he does look like an Arab.

  • Several older, possibly non-student protestors were arrested Tuesday at USF

  • Among them was Atah Othman, a 39-year-old who brought a weapon

  • The school instructed anti-Israel demonstrators to disperse by 5pm

  • Police broke up the encampment when they failed to obey the order

Atah Othman is charged with trespassing on property, unlawful assembly, resisting an officer, and possession of a firearm on school property.

It's unclear what his connection to the school is, or exactly what type of weapon he brought with him.

The campus anti-Israel protest was organized by the Tampa Bay Students for a Democratic Society group. It attracted some 100 protestors, some of whom were not enrolled at the university.

Others arrested and released, who may not be students but have now been slapped with felony charges include: Emmanuel Atmosfera, 25, and Leonardo Tilelli, 23. Among the others apprehended were Daniel Powell, 32, Jake Geffon, 23, and 27-year-old Cameron Pressey.

It is not clear what older, in some cases armed, non-student protestors were doing at the student-organized demonstration.
