A protester at the chaotic protest against Turning Point USA at the University of California-Berkeley was charged with assault and robbery after a brawl broke out, cops said.
Jihad Dphrepaulezz, 25, allegedly snatched a chain necklace from an attendee, sparking a vicious fight that left the victim covered in blood.
The unidentified second combatant was also arrested but later released.
“Officers determined that one of the men—Jihad Dphrepaulezz … had stolen the other man’s chain from around his neck. The other man was attempting to get his chain back from Dphrepaulezz,” a spokesperson from the Berkeley Police Department told The Post.
Aerial footage from FOX 2 appears to show Dphrepaulezz snatching something from a TPUSA supporter’s neck as protestors clashed with Charlie Kirk supporters.
Dphrepaulezz appears to dash away before the man—in a red shirt reading “freedom”—chases him down.
Photographs from the aftermath show the man with his face covered in blood.
The brawl went down as protestors stormed a sold-out event, organizers said — with keffiyeh-clad protesters clashing with cops and attendees.
Turning Point USA leaders quickly blamed the bloody violence on anti-fascist agitators as footage showed demonstrators trying to break through police barricades after the campus event for the group was kicking off late Monday.
Police recommended charges of robbery and battery resulting in injury for Dphrepaulezz.
