Fox News
San Diego prosecutors filed charges against anti-fascist protesters who allegedly attacked Trump supporters at a rally in January
The defendants "are self-identified to be affiliated with Anti-fascists or Antifa," and gathered on Jan. 9 in San Diego to take "direct action" against a pro-Trump "Patriot March," according to the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office. "Direct action" is defined as "acts of violence such as assault, battery, assault with deadly weapons, arson, and vandalism," according to the DA’s office. Police declared an unlawful assembly the day of the clashes.
At least seven people were arraigned Monday, following raids in Southern California last Thursday that led to arrests of the suspects.
