In a tweet, city officials said "incident in the area of Union Square has been resolved" in an update. Residents should still expect residual traffic delays. Around 2 p.m., some protesters gathered in the area of Union Square's Christmas tree. One protester also climbed the tree, hung a Palestinian flag, and placed a "Free Palestine" poster on the tree.
