Antifa and BLM members carried assault weapons in downtown Kalamazoo protesting the presence of the Proud Boys.
Members of Proud Boys, Bikers For Trump, and a local church clashed the armed counter-protesters at Arcadia Creek Festival Plaza in Kalamazoo on August 15, 2020.
Assistant Chief Vernon Coakley of the Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety said a few people were arrested but didn’t know exactly how many.
“A fight occurred, people were fighting, and that’s when we stepped in,” Coakley said.
