A Twin Cities man was one of four stabbed in Washington, D.C., while demonstrating among Proud Boys followers over the weekend in support of President Donald Trump s fruitless effort to overturn his re-election defeat.
District of Columbia police said that Corey O. Nielsen, 39, of Robbinsdale, was taken to a nearby hospital after being wounded Saturday near Harry s Bar, which the Washington Post described as a gathering spot for the Proud Boys, a far-right group known for street fighting and directed by Trump during the campaign to stand back and stand by. The Post also said Nielsen was charged with simple assault.
