Brawl breaks out over Trump’s destroyed Walk of Fame star
A brawl broke out between supporters of President Trump and opponents over his defaced Hollywood Walk of Fame star on Thursday night, according to TMZ.
Footage obtained by TMZ shows protesters chanting “F— Donald Trump” near the president’s destroyed star on one side of the sidewalk. On the other side, a group of Trump supporters stood surrounding what appeared to be a cardboard cut-out of the president.

According to TMZ, no arrests have been made.
The incident occurred just a day after the president’s star was vandalized Wednesday morning by a man using a pickaxe.
Witnesses said they saw a man pull a pickaxe from a guitar case and use it to destroy the star.
Los Angeles police later said that a man, Austin Clay, claimed responsibility for vandalizing the star and turned himself in at the Beverly Hills police headquarters on Wednesday.
