A bloody fight broke out near the University of California, Berkeley, on Monday afternoon, ahead of a Turning Point USA event on campus.
The event, which featured Dr. Frank Turek and Rob Schneider, marked the end of the “This Is The Turning Point” tour.
It took place just two months after TPUSA’s founder Charlie Kirk was assassinated at a campus event in Utah on Sept. 10.
The confrontation erupted at around 4:30 PST. During the brawl, two men were seen fighting each other, one of whom had blood gushing from his face.

Video taken by Fox News Digital also shows a crowd of agitators gathering around the fight. Many demonstrators wore keffiyehs and carried signs with left-wing messages.
Local police had difficulty containing the agitators and were seen putting on shield masks and gathering batons.
It is unknown how many participants were injured.
The Berkeley Police Department told Fox News Digital that at least two people have been arrested as of 6 p.m. local time.
“I do not have the specific details of what the arrests were for,” the police spokesperson said. “At this point, I can share that one of the parties was arrested for battery.”

A spokesperson for UC Berkeley told Fox News Digital that the altercation did not take place on campus grounds, and did not elaborate further.
Dr. Frank Turek, a mentor of Kirk’s, spoke with Fox News Digital last week about the upcoming Berkeley event.
During the interview, Turek said that he told Kirk that the UC Berkeley stop was the one he wanted to attend.
“If I could go to any one event with him, it would be that one,” the Christian author said.
“I wanted to go to UC Berkeley because it is so progressive and liberal in their views, and I wanted to provide evidence that Christianity was indeed true.”

After the event, protesters surrounded all the exits, heckled attendees and shouted obscenities as they filtered out.
