image for Body cam footage: Neo-Nazis who marched in Short North claimed to be victims of violence

In body camera footage Columbus police released Monday, the neo-Nazis told police they had never experienced a response like the one they received in Columbus.

They said people pulled guns on them and threw cans and vegetables as they marched, waved flags and yelled racial slurs.

The Nov. 16 march drew stern condemnation from city hall to the White House, but no arrests were made.

A group of Black men organized a counter-march the next day, following the same route in the Short North with a message of peace.

In a statement, Columbus police previously said they could not find sufficient probable cause to file any charges against the neo-Nazis.

There the neo-Nazis, wearing black and red clothing and carrying black flags with red swastikas, told police they were leaving because they were under attack.

They told police they were marching because "our country is being invaded and white people are being ostracized." »
