NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A Nazi flag carrying protester has been charged with aggravated assault for using a flagpole to strike down a bartender in Downtown Nashville over the weekend, according to Metro Police.
In addition, 29-year-old Ryan Scott McCann of Ontario, Canada was also charged with disorderly conduct.
McCann was part of a group of Neo-Nazi protesters who carried Nazi flags on Sunday afternoon.
The group left Broadway and as they walked, 19-year-old Deago Buck became involved in a physical altercation with the protesters.
As the parties became separated, he was seen striking Buck in the face and in the ribs with the flagpole.
Buck was arrested on misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and resisting police.
Music lessons for just 50 cents! A Nashville music school has been providing that to area students for over 40 years including for the city's current mayor. As a child, I always wanted to take piano lessons. I was able to for about 6 months but had to stop due to family finances. I would have loved to have had access to a program like this at the W. O. Smith Music School.
