I'm in Kenosha, Wisconsin, where things were pretty calm until two members of the Proud Boys arrived.

Protesters shouted them away from a park and continued to follow them until the police scooped them up in a car and sped away.
VIDEO: As the #Kenosha police were protecting the two "Proud Boys" members from protesters, one officer sprayed Ashley Dorelus, a documentary filmmaker, in the face with a chemical agent.

She told me she swatted his hand because he touched her breast as he was pushing her away.
I just spoke with Ashley Dorelus, whose eyes were burning after a police officer sprayed her with a chemical agent when she swatted his hand away.

She's a documentary filmmaker who had been trying to interview the two Proud Boys members who showed up in #Kenosha.
(My first twete should have said "a woman in a MAGA hat and a man who said he was a member of the Proud Boys group."

They were together, but the Proud Boys, a far-right group that often incites violence at protests, is an all-male group.)
Things are very quiet now in Kenosha following the start of the 7 p.m. curfew.

More journalists than protesters at the park that has been a hub for demonstrations.
Earlier, a guy in a MAGA hat arrived and began jawing with protesters.

When one guy got up in his face, the MAGA guy took a swing at him, missed, and was taken to the ground.

Then, a guy with "PRESS" on his backpack ran over and appeared to kick the downed Trump supporter.
