A violent altercation unfolded on Monday afternoon near the University of California, Berkeley, just before a Turning Point USA event was scheduled to take place on campus.

This gathering, set to feature Dr. Frank Turek alongside Rob Schneider, serves as the concluding event of the “This Is The Turning Point” tour.

This occasion follows closely on the heels of a tragic incident two months prior, on September 10, when TPUSA’s founder, Charlie Kirk, was tragically killed during a campus event in Utah.

The skirmish began at approximately 4:30 PM PST.

Witnesses reported seeing two men engaged in a physical fight, with one individual visibly bleeding from the 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.
