Madison police investigating possible ambush of 'Proud Boy' by anti-fascists
On May 13, Madison may have been the scene of physical clash between right and left related to the current explosive political landscape.
On that night, a group of young men known as the Proud Boys from Wisconsin and possibly other states gathered to confer on their alt-right agenda. A South Chicago anti-fascist group, aware of the Proud Boys meeting at the Irish Pub on State Street, arrived at the bar that same night, waited until the Proud Boys group left, then ambushed one of them.
Madison police have not verified this account, which was posted by an anti-fascist — or "antifa" — group from south Chicago. MPD spokesman Joel DeSpain described an investigation into the incident as "ongoing."
The victim, Thaddeus Pall of Madison, posted a selfie on Twitter, his bloodied face and fingers on display along with a few alt-right hashtags.
