Police say at least one person was stabbed during the clashes. Several more were injured. In one instance, a known white supremacist was videotaped punching a young anti-fascist woman named Louise Rosealma in the face.

The man who is seen punching her is Nathan Damigo, a former U.S. Marine, who founded the white supremacist organization known as "Identity Europa."
