Last night’s football game at Northwestern University took a turn when anti-police protestors took to the field to demonstrate.

The students’ signs called for the abolishment of the university’s police department and to “invest in black lives.”

“Board of trustee meet with us now” one sign read.

NU students are protesting the Northwestern Police Department on the field. Now an Iowa fan is running on the field trying to rip the banners. Crazy stuff at Ryan Field. pic.twitter.com/FKoqf8a2Gm

One patriot attempted to rip up their signs.

Some kid in Iowa gear just ran on as well in an attempt to tear up said signs https://t.co/98qeUJqg0g
