Supporters of President Donald Trump gathered Saturday at the Capitol to protest the results of the 2020 election in the latest in a series of rallies at state capitols across the nation.

Over an hour after the start of the rally, counter-protesters arrived at the police barricade at 10th and L Street. Proud Boys and Trump supporters faced off with the counter-protesters and the two groups were kept separated by a line of Sacramento Police Department officers.

Trump supporters then marched down 10th Street and up to Cesar Chavez Plaza where a fight started between a Proud Boy and a counter-protester, which was broken up by police.

The gathering of about 200 was deemed an unlawful assemblage and was dispersed by the Sacramento Police Department forcing the rally back to the Capitol, separating pro-Trump protesters from counter-protesters.
