At least 14 arrested in California

Most of the suspected offenders were arrested for bringing banned items into the rally zone, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Berkeley police spokeswoman Jennifer Coats as saying.

According to the police official, at least one person was injured in a fight.

White smoke was seen on the scene, believed by local media and some eyewitnesses to be tear gas, as the two sides clashed in the university city.

RT’s Ruptly agency’s feed from the scene was abruptly cut off after masked protesters, purportedly members of Antifa, approached the camera and demanded the crew “move that thing.” A brief tussle is then heard before the live feed is lost.

A Ruptly producer, who was heard telling the protesters to back off, reported that the camera was damaged and they had to cancel the feed.

Berkeley, which lies eastern shore of San Francisco Bay, had been set to host a “No To Marxism in America” rally of right-wing activists at the Martin Luther King Civic Center Park Sunday.
