Global News
Video shows Alec Baldwin yelling and pushing his body into a pro-Palestinian protester before New York police officers stepped in and separated the pair.
Alec Baldwin was captured on video at a pro-Palestinian rally in New York City on Monday during a heated argument with a protester.
The confrontation reached a fever pitch when Baldwin began pushing his body into the protester before officers with the New York Police Department (NYPD) stepped in and ushered the actor away.
The video begins with the 30 Rock actor speaking to a small group of protesters with an NYPD officer beside him. The noise of the chanting crowd drowns out Baldwin’s words, so it’s unclear what was said at the beginning of the encounter.
It is also unclear what transpired before the video began.
One protester, wearing a brown coat and a keffiyeh scarf, begins speaking one-on-one with Baldwin.
“You work for Hollywood, do you condemn Israel?” the protester asks.
“You’ve already made up your mind to every question you’ve got, right?” Baldwin responds.
“I asked you a question, is that your answer?” the protester replies.
