A rally organised by the right-wing Patriot Prayer group descended into violent chaos on June 30 as members confronted protesters staging a demonstration across the street.

The two groups, separated at first by barricades and heavy police presence, eventually clashed, with eggs, firecrackers and bottles thrown on both sides.

This video captures the moment a flash-bang grenade was thrown in the midst of the right-wing group.

Police attempted to disperse the crowd with pepper spray. Four people were arrested and a range of weapons, including clubs, batons and gloves with reinforced knuckles were seized.
