From Sacramento’s NBC affiliate:



Ten people were injured during a clash between anti-fascists and white supremacists at the State Capitol Sunday, authorities said. Two people suffered life-threatening stab wounds were taken to area hospitals, officials said. Nine men and one woman, ages 19 to 58, were injured during the fight.

At least three people were stabbed at the State Capitol while others were stabbed in a neighboring park. Fire crews report patients’ injuries range from stab wounds to lacerations.

All the people who were injured are expected to survive, police said. The Traditionalist Workers Party had a scheduled protest at noon when a group of counter-protesters showed up to demonstrate against them.

The Sacramento Police Department deployed over 100 officers from different specialty units from the department, officials said. About 400 anti-fascists confronted about 30 white supremacists in front of the State Capitol, the California Highway Patrol said. The protesters threw pieces of concrete, rocks and smashed the glass at the Capitol.
