Prosecutors to consider charging anti-KKK protesters in Anaheim melee

Orange County prosecutors will consider filing charges Tuesday against a handful of counter-protesters who allegedly punched, kicked and stabbed a group of Ku Klux Klan members at a park in Anaheim over the weekend, authorities said.

Members of the group, part of a larger counter-protest contingent that showed up at Pearson Park on Saturday morning to confront a planned KKK rally, were seen on camera rushing the klansmen as soon as they exited their vehicles, Anaheim police said.

 

The rally’s theme was to be “white lives matter” and Klan members were expected to pass out fliers to park visitors. The klansmen weren’t wearing white robes and hoods from the Klan of yesteryear, but black shirts with patches of the Confederate flag, the KKK insignia and their respective ranks, among others. One man had a patch reading “Grand Dragon.”
