A meeting of opposing groups at the University of California, Berkeley, resulted in four arrests after violence erupted in an “empathy tent” on Tuesday, Sept. 27.
Byron White, a public information officer with the Berkeley Police Department, said he could not disclose the details of the arrests that took place, but did confirm that prominent Antifa extremist and national organizer for By Any Means Necessary, Yvette Felarca, was arrested for attacking right-wing demonstrator Kyle Chapman.
