Supporters for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and anti-government supporters clashed today in front of the Federal Building in Los Angeles. According to witnesses most of the engagements were verbal in nature where both parties were getting in each other’s faces and yelling phrases meant to demean and demoralize the other party.
However these clashes were escalating quickly and the Los Angeles Police Department and the Highway Patrol were called in to separate the two parties.
The supports of President Assad were sent to the parking lot and the anti-government supporters remained on the corner of Wilshire Blvd and Veteran Ave. Police officers and state troopers remained on scene to take reports and to make sure no further conflicts occur.
