Counter protestors clash with “extremist group” outside California state Capitol building

Authorities say a total of 10 people were taken to the hospital after counter-protesters clashed with members of “right-wing extremist groups” outside the California state Capitol building in Sacramento.

The Sacramento Fire Department says the injured included nine men and one woman ranging from 19 to 58 years old. At least five suffered stab wounds.

A fight broke out when about 30 members of the Traditionalist Worker Party gathering for a rally Sunday were met by about 400 counter-protesters.

Authorities are investigating what happened, but no arrests have been made.
