   Three people, reportedly protesters demanding justice for Jordan Neely,   
   were taken into custody at a New York City rally held in support of Daniel   
   Penny Wednesday.   
      
   Video from the rally showed a group of elderly veterans waving American   
   flags in Collect Pond Park in Lower Manhattan.   
      
   Steps away were a group of protesters holding yellow signs with the   
   message "Justice for Jordan Neely" and Neely's image as NYPD officers   
   stood along a metal barricade separating the two groups.   
      
   "This is not worth it," a man yelled to the veterans, gesturing to move   
   away from the protesters.   
      
   Footage showed a protester gesturing and shouting in the face of officers   
   stationed at the rally in support of Penny Wednesday. Officers were seen   
   escorting at least two of the demonstrators away from the park with their   
   hands behind their backs.   
      
   "We're out here because we're not going to let it go down in history that   
   nobody was fighting for Jordan Neely. That nobody was fighting for the   
   homeless people on the subway systems," another female protester shouted.   
      
   Additional video seemed to show a confrontation between officers and a man   
   shouting "F--- Daniel Penny."   
      
   An NYPD spokesperson told Fox News Digital the three people in custody   
   were transferred to the 7th Precinct, and charges remain pending. But no   
   additional details were immediately available.   
      
   The clamoring and jeers of protesters could be heard as Nassau County   
   Executive Bruce Blakeman, who serves the tens of thousands of Long   
   Islanders who travel into Manhattan each day, addressed supporters of   
   Penny, who is charged with manslaughter in Neely's May 1 chokehold death   
   aboard a subway train.   
      
   Penny, a 24-year-old Marine veteran, was questioned by police that day and   
   released, but cell phone video, which showed two other men holding Neely's   
   arms as Penny held Neely in a chokehold for several minutes, went viral   
   online.   
      
   A medical examiner later ruled Neely's death a homicide, even though   
   prosecutors noted Neely was yelling threats toward other subway passengers   
   when Penny intervened.   
      
   "We feel that the prosecution of Daniel Penny is an outrage. It's a   
   miscarriage of justice. And this is a problem that has existed in   
   Manhattan since Alvin Bragg has been district attorney," Blakeman said at   
   a podium over the noise of protesters. "It's not a problem in Staten   
   Island. It's not a problem in Queens. It's not a problem in Brooklyn. It's   
   not a problem in the Bronx.   
      
   "It's a problem here in Manhattan, with a Manhattan district attorney.   
   It's not a problem with Mayor Adams, who wants this to be a safer city.   
   Again, it's somebody who should be the chief law enforcement officer of   
   Manhattan, but he puts the rights of criminals over those of law-abiding   
   citizens and victims of crimes.
