"Members of a far-right group called the “Proud Boys” got in a violent encounter in New York on Friday night after a speech from Gavin McInnes, the group’s leader, with videos showing more than a dozen members of the group kicking and punching people on the ground.
Dressed in their uniform—a black polo shirt with yellow piping—the Proud Boys can be seen stomping on a person on the ground near Third Avenue and 83rd Street on the east side of Manhattan. A person can be heard yelling “faggot” during the violence.
The NYPD confirmed that three men ages 20 to 35 were arrested during the clash and each was charged with robbery and assault, although it’s not clear whether the arrested people were Proud Boys or left-wing antifascist “antifa” there to protest their event. The men were waiting to be arraigned Saturday afternoon in Manhattan Criminal Court." (More)
