The assault was captured on video and posted to Twitter by Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.

The victim was passing out information about the conservative student group when he was approached by two angry men. After a verbal altercation ensued, he pulled out his phone to begin filming.
On Friday, Zachary Greenberg (pictured below) was identified and arrested by UC Police — law enforcement booked him into jail at 1 PM.
CBS San Francisco reported that police will formally present the case to the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office for consideration of the filing of criminal charges, the university said.
