Does anybody know any of the details yet? Who did the stabbings? Who was stabbed? First reports were that there were many critical injuries but that seems now to be in question.
This was at a White Supremacist and Nationalist rally where lots of anti-facist protestors were present.
eta: disregard, I guess the casualties are not life-threatening. 5 or 6 people were stabbed and the event is continuing so I guess it's not a huge news item.

Why does a white supremacist group need to hold a 'rally?' Is it to have speeches and declare their supremacy? That, of course, is going to attract protesters who believe in equality.
Can't they just have a picnic or a party in their local white supremacist hall?
"The Traditionalist Worker Party, a white nationalist group, was holding a march Sunday “to protest against globalization and in defense of the right to free expression,” according to the group’s website. The members appeared to be vastly outnumbered by counter-protesters, who held up signs that read “Nazi scum,” according to photos and videos posted on social media.
An organizer of the rally who wasn’t at the Capitol, said on a web live stream that one person from his group had been stabbed and was being transported to the hospital. “They got one of us but we got six of them,” he said." Rally canceled after violent clashes, stabbings at Capitol | ABC10.com

The protesters showed up with weapons and attacked. They have stated they will do this to any speech they don't like.
They also attacked bystanders who were filming it.
