California: At Least 7 Stabbed in Clashes Between White Nationalists, Counterprotesters

HeadlineJun 27, 2016

In California, at least seven people have been stabbed and 10 hospitalized after a confrontation between white nationalists and anti-racist counterprotesters at the state capital in Sacramento. White nationalist leader Matthew Heimbach said only one of the people injured was from his group, the Traditionalist Worker Party, which organized the rally to “make a statement about the precarious situation our race is in” after what it called “brutal assaults” at Donald Trump events. Hundreds of anti-racist demonstrators outnumbered the white nationalists.
