14 arrested in Berkeley, California as fights break out between Trump supporters and opponents
At least 14 people were arrested after opponents of President Donald Trump and supporters clashed at a march in Berkeley, California, AzVision.az reports.
News reports said hundreds of people gathered at a park including Trump supporters who held a free speech rally, while opponents of Trump policies shouted and chanted. Several fights broke out, according to the East Bay Times.

CNN reported that 14 people were taken into custody.

News reports said Trump policy foes waved signs reading "No! Pussy-Grabbing! No! Patriarchy! No! Fascist USA! Drive out Trump-Pence regime!" and "Fascist scum your time is done."

Supporters held signs in support of "Free Speech."

The protests were timed to coincide with the traditional April 15 deadline for US tax filings.

The deadline this year is April 18, however, because April 15 falls on a Saturday.

Thousands of protesters gathered Saturday in cities across the United States to pressure Trump to release his tax returns, a move of transparency he has refused to make.
