A massive brawl broke out at the corner of Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue between Donald Trump's supporters and protesters. The incident took place on Thursday evening, although no one has been seriously hurt, the Los Angeles police are hunting for two suspects for attack and vandalisation.
The brawl was caught on camera too. From the video posted, it has been learnt that two men—a youth pastor and a YouTuber—dressed up in full 'Maga' costume went out to the crowd to see how the public behaves with Trump supporters. Indeed, it was part of their social experiment and even offered free photographs with Trump at the venue. As soon as the guys landed on the venue, two men stopped them and said, "get out of my face." Soon, the brawl turned messy.

According to a report on Gateway Pundit, "As the situation escalated, the man began to rile up the crowd that had formed to chant 'f-ck Trump.' He then left and came back with more men, one of whom had a large knife." The group attacked the men and even ran away with the YouTuber's $3,000 camera.

However, the police were able to track down the suspect's vehicle and identify the persons involved. It has also been reported that the Youtuber identified the suspect's mother through social platforms and has offered to drop the legal charges if they agree to appear on his talk show to discuss the incident. If proven guilty, the suspects might end up to 15 years in jail. "We are willing to drop the charges which are already filed if he agrees to come on our talk show and discuss what happened. Please let me know if he is interested," Schaffer wrote in a message to the man's mother," he reportedly wrote to the suspect's mother.
