Police in San Jose on Tuesday identified the four teenagers arrested last week during a rally for Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.

Three teenagers were each booked on a felony count of assault with a deadly weapon: Ahmed Abdirahman, 19; Robert Trillo, 18; and Antonio Fernandez, 19, according to the San Jose Police Department.

A fourth man, Michael Kitaigorodsky, 19, was booked on a misdemeanor count of refusal to disperse, police said.

Police did not release details about what weapons were allegedly used by the men. All four were booked into the Santa Clara County Jail.

As the campaign intensified in California ahead of Tuesday’s primary election, Trump, the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, has drawn large crowds that often turned boisterous and violent.

Dozens were arrested during demonstrations in Costa Mesa and Anaheim. Protesters in Burlingame temporarily blocked the real estate developer from entering a hotel for a speech.

But the situation in San Jose last Thursday was more extreme.


Anti-Trump demonstrators targeted the candidate’s supporters as they left the rally. About a dozen people were hit, some car windows were broken, and at least one woman was struck by a raw egg. Some Trump hats were torched after they were snatched from the candidate’s supporters.

It’s unclear what role each of the men arrested allegedly had in the violence.

In a statement, San Jose police said other people have been identified in connection with the violent demonstrations.

“We need any person who was a victim of a crime, or can provide valuable witness information, to come forward so we can complete our investigations and bring charges as appropriate,” police said in a statement.
