Tweets reported that protesters were angry that a reporter had been arrested.

An NYPD spokeswoman told Fox News no one with NYPD press credentials had been arrested. 

It wasn't clear what charges those arrested were facing.

The Post said in another video protesters could be heard hurling expletives at cops.

“Go fight real crime, you f------ pathetic p------,” one prostester is heard screaming, according to the paper.

About 300 anti-Trump demonstrators had gathered at Madison Square Park to confront pro-Trump caravans crisscrossing the New York region ahead of Tuesday’s presidential election, according to the paper and other reports.

The anti-Trump group marched to the West Side Highway, before dispersing after concluding the Trump caravans were likely avoiding Manhattan.
