A pro-Trump convoy driving from Brooklyn to Manhattan encountered opposition from counter protesters along its route on Sunday.
One confrontation, which took place in the Midtown area near Times Square, escalated after a group of counter protesters surrounded a vehicle taking part in the convoy. Demonstrators appeared to douse the vehicle in red paint. A message posted alongside one of the social media videos said counter protesters also tore flags from vehicles supporting the convoy.
Footage showed individuals inside the car exit their vehicle before arguments with counter protesters became physical. A man wearing a red sweatshirt with"Keep America Great" printed across the chest could be seen tackling a woman over a low barricade near the side of the boulevard, although the specific catalyst for the quarrel was unclear.
Soon after the Trump supporter backed away, a different, unidentifiable individual wearing a face mask appeared to kick another person so the latter fell onto the pavement.
