A anti-Trump man attending a Warren rally was handcuffed and taken away for his violent behavior confronting a group of MAGA supporters who crashed the event.
Per ABC, a man was arrested Thursday night outside of a crowded town hall event with 2020 presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren after he allegedly got into a dispute with members of a local group that supports President Donald Trump.
The man, who Tempe police declined to name, was arrested for “assault and disorderly conduct for confronting another subject at the event,” said Detective Greg Bacon, a public information officer for the police department.
The group of Trump supporters included about five men and women who all said they were part of AZ Patriots, a Republican group which describes itself as “citizen journalists and fearless activists” on its Facebook page. They wore red “Make America Great Again” hats and T-shirts displaying the name of their local organization.
Jennifer Harrison, one of the group’s leading members, said the man who was arrested “lunged” at them and “tried to grab a phone” from her partner’s hand as they were escorted out of the event by security, about halfway through Warren’s speech at the Marquee Theatre.
