Here is the press conference with Middlesex County District Attorney Marian Ryan announcing that Scott Hayes will be charged after shooting the man with a pro-Palestinian pin who tackled him during a protest.

🚨BREAKING🚨 A man wearing a Palestinian pin was shot in the stomach this evening after he charged through traffic and tackled a pro-Israel Iraq war veteran in Newton, Massachusetts.

Here is my full EXCLUSIVE report for @realDailyWire with all of the details:

In a second video, the veteran is seen giving medical care to the man who tackled him until first responders arrived.

Some things to clarify: the veteran is not Jewish. Just a pro-Israel American who often goes to protests carrying American and Israeli flags, according to his fellow protesters.

The veteran was charged with: assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and violation of a constitutional right causing injury. He will be arraigned tomorrow.

I can now release his name since the DA put it out there. The veteran is Scott Hayes of Framingham

The ADL New England say it is “concerning” that "charges were immediately filed prior to completion of the investigation."

Supporters are outside the arraignment of Scott Hayes

She's a monster

Scott Hayes was defending himself from an antisemitic attack - it is outrageous he is being charged. He was tackled to the ground.

Wait, it’s a constitutional right to violently attack someone but it’s not a constitutional right to defend yourself from that attacker with a legally possessed firearm??

Oh he’s screwed in Massachusetts. They only let criminals go if they’re illegal immigrants. Pray for this man; he needs us. Also… Is that a man in a wig?

Who else was completely baffled by this press conference? What “constitutional activity,” did Scott violate to be charged with? Is the useful (maybe not so useful right now), terrorist sympathizer going to be charged? He was the instigator and also aggravated assault and battery. T Why was Scott charged so quickly? I thought these handsome women were going to do a “thorough investigation” Does anyone know if Scott was legally licensed to carry the weapon?

Marian Ryan, Middlesex County D.A. is a LUNATIC radical activist. Immediately CHARGING Scott Hayes shows how politicized and unprofessional she is. Self defense is OBVIOUS from the video evidence, and certainly warrants WAITING for a full investigation before charging.
