Campus police have announced an arrest in the felony assault case involving a man caught on video punching another man on the UC Berkeley campus last week.
The University of California Police Department announced the arrest by email at 2:10 p.m. Friday. Police said UCPD arrested Zachary Greenberg on a warrant involving a Feb. 19 assault on Sproul Plaza. Police said last week that they had identified the suspect in the case but did not release his name until Friday.
Videos of the incident went viral last week after they were shared by conservative groups and figures calling the assault a leftist attack on students free speech. UC Berkeley has said that neither man is a Cal student.
According to UCPD, an Alameda County Superior Court judge issued a warrant for Greenbergs arrest Friday. He was booked into jail at 1 p.m., UCPD said.
UCPD will formally present the case to the Alameda County District Attorneys Office for consideration of the filing of criminal charges, UCPD wrote in the prepared statement. Once the matter is presented and reviewed by the District Attorneys Office, additional information will be made available regarding a charging decision.
According to jail records online, Greenberg was arrested in Berkeley at 12:18 p.m. on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon other than a firearm with force likely to produce great bodily injury. His city of residence was not immediately available.
The 28-year-old is being held with a bail of $30,000 and is set for arraignment Monday, according to jail records online

We need to start charging the fascists with civil rights violations too!
People will say:
If it really happened it would be a big story on CNN, NYT and WaPo. It’s only in a little webite so it never happened.
We can’t have a country if genuine news is suppressed. See my tagline.
Let’s hope for the conviction, so the bounty is deemed “earned”.
I believe you, but where was he identified?
Here’s his booking pic (I think):

FReeper bagster said the guy is Antifa but reports suppressed.
By this picture we can see why the Antifa wear scarves and masks and pulled down hats to hide their ugly snarling faces. His could curdle milk.
I see he likes black t-shirts.
hmmmmm...Grennberg is a Jewish name, and the guy who he hit was NOT a Jew....HATE CRIME!
“Was it the 50,000 dollar bounty?”
certainly seemed like things were terminally stalled until AFTER the reward was announced ...
It’s CA so probably a slap on the wrist.
Some fat kid in a basement posted this on the internet on Feb 21.
Re: Conservative attacked on UC Berkeley campus
Attacker = member of local ANTIFA chapter (joined April 2018).
Facial scans do not 'hit' directly > 2 jumps downstream req.
Shortly thereafter, there he was. I forget where I saw it. I look at lots of stuff. I also remember it being reported that neither victim or scumbag were students at Bezerkey.
The fat kid also mentioned his ANTIFA status and when he joined.
NSA and Military Intelligence know lots of things. I guess fat LARPY kids do too? Maybe the fat kid tipped off local law enforcement on the I.D.? Lots of possibilities.
“I guess h will be a shoo in for tenure, after this blows over.”
soon, he’ll announce that he too has cast his hat in the ring to run for President ...
...and the Alameda County District Attorneys Office will decide not to file criminal charges. "No reasonable prosecutor, etc."
