An Arizona Donald Trump rally turned into the Saturday night fights when an anti-Trump protester was punched and kicked while being escorted out of the building by police.
The protester, wearing an American flag shirt and holding up a large photo of the Republican presidential candidate, is followed by another wearing a KKK-inspired hood at the Tucson event. The person who did the punching and kicking was immediately arrested by police.
Earlier into the event, Trump referred to the hooded protester.
“He’s a disgusting guy,” Trump said. “That is a disgusting guy, really disgusting.”
NBC News producer and reporter Frank Thorp tweeted the action.

Apparently he came out of it OK, though.
@KatyTurNBC Good Q, he got up and was walked out, couldn’t see his face.
