Nov. 12 (UPI) -- The Justice Department said it plans to investigate protests at the University of California's Berkeley campus during an event by the conservative group Turning Point USA founded by the late Charlie Kirk.
Attorney General Pam Bondi, in a post on X on Tuesday, described the demonstrations at the campus as "violent riots" and the participants as "antifa."
"The violent riots at UC Berkeley last night are under full investigation by the FBI-led Joint Terrorism Task Force," Bondi said. "We will continue to spare no expense unmasking all who commit and orchestrate acts of political violence."
University spokesman Dan Mogulof said there was "a single violent incident" between two men fighting each other. The San Francisco Gate reported the fight broke out after one of the men accused the other of stealing a chain.
