Overview

• Footage posted by Cam Higby shows a woman reach for his MAGA hat, knock him backward, hit him with the hat, and get pepper-sprayed as she walked away.
• Police said the dispute occurred around 8 p.m. Wednesday at Columbus Circle outside Washington, D.C.’s Union Station.
• A later video shows officers handcuffing the woman as she shouted at Higby, and authorities have not released further details on the counts.
• Higby, a Today is America personality running a cross-campus “Fearless Tour,” says he used mace in self-defense and claims the woman resisted arrest.
• The tour continued Thursday with a setup at Georgetown University, as the videos circulated widely and drove partisan commentary online.
