Fights erupt, 12 arrested ahead of white nationalist’s speech in Michigan


A least a dozen people were arrested on Monday after supporters of Richard Spencer clashed with protesters outside a Michigan college campus where the white nationalist was scheduled to speak. But sporadic fisticuffs continued to erupt outside the campus as officers escorted attendees into the building in small groups. A spokeswoman for the Michigan State Police said the department was assisting with crowd control but declined to say how many people had been detained or arrested. This is our free speech being exercised,” said David Sherman, 25, who drove to the campus from Indianapolis to protest Spencer’s event. In October, protests broke out as Spencer gave a speech at the University of Florida in Gainsville.
