'Hands off Syria': Anti-war protesters clash with police in Jacksonville, USA

Someone from Jacksonville said it happened this way:

"The guy ... had just been pushed by a trump supporter and had a flag waved in his face. He ran over to the trump supporter, not the police. The police followed him, the trump supporter pushed him again "through the cops" before he moved towards the trump supporter once again and was then arrested and then thrown to the ground by 3-4 officers. This is what incited it all. Excessive force is always excessive. JSO should have used a measured approach."
