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 Greenberg’s arrest Friday. He was booked into jail at 1 p.m., UCPD said.
“UCPD will formally present the case to the Alameda County District Attorney’s 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 Attorney’s 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

WRONG!
We'd be no better if we had set the terms of the battle. We didn't: they did.
I'm thinking lynching would be more appropriate.
Seems pretty obvious to me Berkeley is going to do no more to him than they are absolutely forced into.
Or "Star Chambers."
bkmk
Looks like a traditional Palestinian Keffiyeh he was wearing on that prior arrest?
Keffiyeh
Cowards don’t go on offense. Defense is a loser position.
The hell they don't!
When they're sure they'll be protected, they'll take to offense faster than anyone!
I’m surprised they arrested him. Isn’t this the same Berkeley that not long had cops stand back and watch as another Trump supporter was beat up? Well either way, at least the victim knows his identity now and can sue his pants off.
Frisco lib hitting a conservative.
Jury of his peers will find him a hero in Frisco.
Of course wearing the The Palestinian keffiyeh, or what I like to call the Palestinian terror scarf.

He’s 28 and still in college? Sounds like B. Hussein, a professional student.
Yep, it’s no longer up! LOL! Plus his Facebook, Twitter is gone.
No real evidence that he's ANTIFA. One perhaps photo and a bunch of people saying he is, doesn't make it true.
Going forward, we *MAY* get some evidence he's ANTIFA, but I've yet to see anything but speculation.
I'm UCB Police Chief Margo Bennett.
I said Zachary Greenberg was not a UC Berkeley student, when in fact he was.
You need to know and to remember that I lie to the public regarding matters of violence.
How likely is it, you think, that over the course of my career I have not previously lied to the public..?
Fixed it for ya....
Doesn’t look like the same guy, at all.
Berkeley said this communist was not enrolled at the university. Someone is lying.
Watch him call the police’s arrest “anti-Semitic”. How much you wanna bet?
