Police have arrested a 20-year-old man for allegedly assaulting a middle-aged man who interjected himself into Denver’s downtown No Kings demonstration, shouted expletives and a slur, then fell in a street fracas and suffered a serious injury.
The assault occurred after the older man declared: “‘Yes Trump,’” according to a Denver Police report.
A video circulating on social media showed the older man, wearing a blue New York Giants logo shirt, gesturing at and deriding demonstrators on Saturday afternoon as they rallied near Denver’s Union Station. The man ran and fell against pavement on his face, the video shows.
He got up and ran, again, then was tripped and fell onto the street by a curb against his head. Bleeding, he got up again and, with friends, ran, and clashed with demonstrators. Some demonstrators tried to help him, pointing to his head suggesting he needed medical care as blood covered the left side of his face.
Denver police on Monday confirmed they arrested Jose Cardenas after tracking him from Wynkoop Street, where the assault occurred at about 2:30 p.m., to North Lincoln Street near the intersection with 14th Avenue, “where Cardenas attempted to run from officers.” Witnesses identified Cardenas as the one who assaulted the counter demonstrator, the police statement of probable cause for arrest said. “Cardenas was transported to the Denver Jail and charged with aggravated assault.”
Police did not identify the victim. The report said he suffered “a serious laceration to his head.”
