Police officers in riot gear were called to an Ohio college campus after a crowd of about 1,000 students refused to follow orders to disperse.

A large crowd gathered on Lowes Street in a neighborhood near the University of Dayton (UD) on Tuesday night shortly after the school made an announcement saying that all in-person classes will be canceled until after spring break and that housing will be closed. The move was made in an attempt to curb the spread of the new coronavirus, which causes the disease COVID-19.
