San Diego police declared an unlawful assembly as Trump supporters and counter-protesters faced off Saturday, according to reports.
The protest also prompted police to warn residents to stay away from the Pacific Beach intersection "due to acts of violence."
Local affiliate FOX 5 San Diego tweeted a number of pictures and videos of the event, showing the two groups, and police trying to keep the situation from escalating.
"Rocks & bottles are being thrown at officers," the police tweeted. "Pepper spray (OC) from the crowd is being sprayed towards officers."
The police promised that "actions will be taken" against those attacking police.
