People rallied (esp the queer bloc) and surrounded the van, stopping it moving away by sitting down.
People demanded his release and refused to move - and the police released him.

Politicians and media outlets have tried to portray Gaza protests as a dangerous, violent, extreme mob.
That's despite a tiny proportion of arrests.
And it's not like the police aren't looking for desperate excuses for arrests.
Just have a look at this example.
