The neo-Nazis told police they had never received such a violent response as the one they received in Columbus, and claimed people threw cans and veggies.

Summary

Body cam footage revealed that neo-Nazis who marched in Columbus’ Short North on Nov. 16 were not arrested after police determined they were not the aggressors in a fight.

The group, known as “Hate Club 1844,” claimed they were pepper-sprayed and attacked with cans and vegetables as they marched, waved swastika flags, and yelled slurs.

Witness testimony corroborated that a confrontation started when someone tried to grab their flag.

Police detained, but later released, the group, citing insufficient evidence for charges.

The march drew widespread condemnation and a peaceful counter-march the next day.
