8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
Two men were arrested in the Waldorf Cafeteria at 6:15 a.m. yesterday when five police vehicles-three cars, one station wagon, and one paddy wagon-carrying 13 policemen responded to a complaint by the Waldorf's manager.
Bruce Bernstein, a Tufts student who witnessed the incident, said that the Waldorf's manager had refused to serve a young black man whom he claimed would not be able to pay the bill.
An argument ensued in which the young man told the manager, "Go fuck yourself." The man walked away from the counter saying loudly, "I'm going to New Haven."
When police arrived to arrest the man, Steve Horowitz-a Cambridge writer-protested and was also arrested. The black man shouted "Free Bobby Seale" before he stepped into the paddy wagon.
