Man Arrested In Attack On Conservative Activist At UC Berkeley
Cbs San Francisco ^

Posted on 03/02/2019 5:42:40 AM PST by TigerClaws

BERKELEY (CBS SF) — A man being sought for the assault of a conservative activist on the University of California, Berkeley campus last month has been arrested.

A statement from UC Berkeley Public Affairs said a warrant was issued for suspect Zachary Greenberg and UC police arrested him Friday, booking him into jail at 1 p.m.

Greenberg was identified as one of two men who confronted a conservative activist who had set up a table in Sproul Plaza. Hayden Williams, volunteer with conservative group Turning Points USA was displaying signs that read, “Hate Crimes Hoaxes Hurt Real Victims” – a reference to the Jussie Smollett case – and another saying “This is MAGA Country.”

Greenberg was seen on video landing two punches on Williams – one a glancing blow and another much harder directly on his face.

The incident was recorded by two Cal students with cellphones and video of the encounter has since gone viral.

Police will formally present the case to the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office for consideration of the filing of criminal charges, the university said.

I’m hoping that UC Berkeley doesn’t award him an honorary doctorate.

Outside agitators. Once discouraged & arrested, now well-funded & bussed in.

Gaijin,
Nowhere in that resume did I read the fact that he is proficient in SUCKER PUNCHING and has video footage of his skills.

That was the cheapest punch I’ve ever seen and I do hope that the chickenshit bastard is sent to prison for his assault and battery.

If the prosecutor suggests “Disorderly conduct,” he should be fired. The punch could have killed the young man, he was not expecting it and unable to avoid the blow.

Antifa attacked Tucker Carlson’s home, caused damage and terrorized his family in Washington,DC.

The second that door was broken down someone should have been staring down the barrel of a shot gun.

Great work, guys. Nothing says “spook” like this guy’s resume.

It is depressing to say the least with this man’s background he has so little behavioral maturity or impulse control.

Typical coward. Too bad some biker dude wasn’t on the scene when he sucker-punched that kid. Wish I’d have been there to rearrange his facial features. But not to worry, he’ll get what’s coming to him eventually, hopefully while he’s on vacation in the slammer.

They need to be identified and catalogued for future reference.

Actually they need to be identified so they can have the “thugness” beat out of them.
