Video provided to The Dallas Express shows the moment a protester allegedly shoved a Christian street preacher to the ground during an anti-Trump march near the Republican midterm convention<\/a> in Dallas.<\/p>\n As previously reported by The Dallas Express<\/a>, Dallas police arrested two people, Hunter Holmes<\/a>, 23, and Adrian Garcia<\/a>, 19, on September 10 during an anti-Trump march<\/a> near American Airlines Center after officers said protesters assaulted a counterprotester and blocked a road.<\/p>\n Christian street preacher Chris Svochak, who was assaulted during the September 10 demonstration, told The Dallas Express that the confrontation began at Pike Park<\/a> and escalated as demonstrators marched toward American Airlines Center.<\/p>\n VIDEO:<\/p>\n \u201cFrom near the beginning of the counterprotest, the pink-shirted Antifa leader known as \u2018Doberman\u2019 stated that he intended to block my path and prevent me from entering certain areas,\u201d Svochak said. \u201cHe also directed multiple individuals dressed in black to obstruct us.\u201d<\/p>\n Svochak said the group initially pushed the preachers away from areas of Pike Park before surrounding them again as the march approached the convention.<\/p>\n \u201cAs I passed between several of them and was almost clear, they shoved me and forced me to the ground,\u201d Svochak said.<\/p>\n Dallas police said no medical treatment was required.<\/p>\n Video reviewed by The Dallas Express shows Svochak moving through a group of protesters before a confrontation in which he is pushed toward the ground.<\/p>\n Svochak said he later pulled out pepper spray as protesters continued behaving aggressively but did not deploy it after they backed away.<\/p>\n \u201cDallas Police Department officers then rushed in and took Doberman and another member of the group into custody,\u201d according to Svochak.<\/p>\n Antifa Imagery And Violent Rhetoric<\/p>\n The Dallas Express identified the person operating the X account Doberman_DFW as Holmes. Posts from the account reviewed by The Dallas Express provide additional evidence connecting Holmes to antifascist activism.<\/p>\n In a September 9 post, Doberman stated<\/a> \u201cWe defend. By ANY means necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n A July 31 post included a photograph of three people displaying<\/a> a black flag emblazoned with the words \u201cANTIFASCIST ACTION.\u201d Text superimposed on the photograph stated, \u201cBURY A PROUD BOY,\u201d \u201cFUCK TRUMP,\u201d \u201cFUCK ICE,\u201d and \u201cSTOMP A \ud83d\udc37\u2019s \u00a0BRAINS OUT.\u201d<\/p>\n Had an absolute blast at the show today with Oni and vitamin, they fucked shit up and played to their hearts content, and they\u2019re unapologetic. These are two individuals I would kill and die for, these two individuals are my Fucking brothers. \u2014 Doberman (@Doberman_DFW) July 31, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n Another post from May 11 showed a masked individual wearing body armor and raising a fist. \u201cWe\u2019ve been preparing and organizing,\u201d the account stated<\/a>.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve been preparing and organizing pic.twitter.com\/JMpZeSTdsX<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Doberman (@Doberman_DFW) May 11, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n A May 3 post showed a box containing several unidentified bubble-wrapped objects. \u201cAn amazing comrade made us some cool shit,\u201d Holmes\u2019 account wrote<\/a>. The photograph does not establish what the wrapped objects contained.<\/p>\n The posts document violent rhetoric and Antifascist Action imagery but, standing alone, do not establish that Holmes was preparing to carry out an act of terrorism.<\/p>\n
