Police in Philadelphia need help to identify those believed to be responsible for attacking a group of Marine Corps reservists on Saturday.
The Marines were down the street from a “We the People” rally when they were approached by a group of people who called them “Nazis” and “white supremacists.”
After the name-calling, the group sprayed mace at the Marines and began punching and kicking them.
During the assault, one of the complainant’s had his cell phone stolen from him by one of the male suspects, according to the Philadelphia Police Department.
After the attack, the group fled the scene but police were able to obtain footage of who they believe to be the attackers.
On Saturday, November 15, 2018, at approximately 3:20 pm, the complainants, who are United States Military Reservists, were on the 100 block of S. Front Street, when they were approached by numerous males and females.
The group of suspects called the complainants "Nazis", and "White Supremacists". The suspects then maced the complainants and then proceeded to punch and kick them.
During the assault, one of the complainant's had his cell phone stolen from him by one of the male suspects. The offenders then fled northbound on Front Street, towards Market.
Some of the individuals involved were captured on video at an earlier protest in the area.
