UPDATED at 7:20 p.m. ROCKVILLE, MD — One student wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat as an apparent show of support for President-elect Donald Trump was reportedly beaten during a student protest march Wednesday morning in Rockville.

Hundreds of students from Richard Montgomery High School marched to the Rockville courthouse on Maryland Avenue about 10 a.m. The crowd chanted "United we stand, divided we fall" and "Love Trumps Hate," while a speaker with a bullhorn called Trump a joke and a serial rapist. A 15-year-old boy wearing one of the Trump campaign's hats was attacked by about four students and taken away in an ambulance. WTOP reports that the youth wasn't seriously hurt, but police are investigating and one teen has been charged with assault.

Police say the victim suffered scrapes, cuts and knee abrasions "This student got into an altercation with other students. What we know is he had a red ball cap on. We do not know the student's political views," Major Michael England of the Rockville Police Department told Montgomery Community Media.

On Monday, some students at Montgomery Blair High School and Northwood High School walked out of classes in protest. Similar walkouts have happened at Albert Einstein, John F. Kennedy and James Hubert Blake high schools this week, reports FOX DC.



Swastikas and other symbols of hate are wrong and won't be tolerated by Montgomery County Public Schools, Superintendent Jack Smith said Tuesday.

"In recent weeks, Montgomery County Public Schools has seen a surge in hate-related vandalism in our schools and on school property. This trend is disturbing and unacceptable," Smith said.

A student video posted to Twitter on Nov. 10 showed several boys making apparent Nazi salutes, with the person who captured the video writing, "Montgomery County, Maryland. With a large Jewish population. This is what Trump's rhetoric encourages." Richard Montgomery High School. Montgomery County, Maryland. With a large Jewish population.
