(La Porte, IN) - A man was hauled away by police after attacking an anti-President Trump demonstrator Saturday in downtown La Porte.

Police rushing in found the suspect being held to the pavement by a few of the demonstrators and whisked him away in handcuffs.

 

An upside down flag means "America in Distress."

 

About 100 people took part in the demonstration outside the courthouse.
