Charlie Kirk‘s memorial outside Turning Point USA in Phoenix was trampled on by a disrespectful protester … and, cops say he will be booked on multiple charges.
Video of the incident from Sunday was posted to social media by Fox News reporter Matt Finn … and, it begins with a man stepping on flowers and other tributes laid out for the recently killed conservative commentator.
Another guy in a blue shirt comes up and hurls this protester to the ground … and a crowd gathers around him before he tries to walk off — when he’s surrounded by what looks like two security guards and a police officer.
The protester is thrown against a wall, and the cop slaps a pair of cuffs on him before the video ends.
The Phoenix Police Department released a statement shortly after the incident … revealing they’ve arrested 19-year-old Ryder Corral — who they say they will book on multiple charges, including criminal damage and disorderly conduct.
Kirk was shot to death on the Utah Valley University campus last week during a Q&A with students. Tyler Robinson — a 22-year-old — has been arrested and booked on aggravated murder in connection to the shooting. Prosecutors plan to formally charge him on Tuesday.
Kirk divided many in the country with his statements … and, while many have paid tribute to him, others have not spoken as respectfully of him in the days since he was killed.
