Carmitchel documented several more skirmishes and police officers ultimately got involved to separate the two crowds.
Some of the protesters, who had gathered at City Hall to protest against mask and vaccine mandates could be seen yelling "F*** Antifa" to the counter-protesters clad in all black.
"Anti-vaxxers have been holding violent protests attacking innocent bystanders in the process," a Twitter account linked to Antifa posted earlier this week along with a flyer encouraging others to protest against the anti-mask crowd. "Now they want to hold a rally downtown, this directly puts the unhoused communities who live in the area in danger. We say no more!"
The LAPD reacted to the event on Twitter and said no arrests were made.
"LAPD is monitoring a protest at the south lawn of the LA City Hall," the tweet said. "We are on scene to maintain order after a fight broke out. We are aware of 1 male that was stabbed & is being treated by LAFD. No arrests have been made but investigation is on going."
