An arrest has been made after an attack on a conservative activist on the University of California-Berkeley campus was caught on camera.
Zachary Greenberg, 28, was arrested on a warrant on Friday at in Berkeley, California, following a 10-day search, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
He was held on $30,000 bail in Alameda County jail on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon likely to produce great bodily injury for the attack on Hayden WiIliams on February 19.
He is to be arraigned on Monday at the Wiley W. Manuel Courthouse in Oakland.
Neither Greenberg or Williams are students at the University of California-Berkeley.
In a statement to Campus Reform, Williams expressed his view of the news of his attacker's arrest:
'I am grateful to the University of California Berkeley Police Department for its dedication to identifying and arresting the man who attacked me. But while this is a moment for celebration, I remain disappointed by the UC Berkeley Administration, which allowed a culture of intolerance and violence toward conservatives to grow. I hope UC Berkeley’s leadership will seize on this moment-in-time to take deliberate steps to establish a zero tolerance policy when it comes to violence, and restore Berkeley’s legacy as ‘Home of the Free Speech Movement.'
Video from the incident shows Williams (left) being confronted by a violent attacker who punched him in the face as he was recruiting for a conservative student group
Williams was running a campus recruitment table for Turning Points USA, a conservative activist group, when he was approached by his attacker in Sproul Plaza.
The sign on the table read 'hate crime hoaxes hurt real victims,' a reference to the Jussie Smollett the bias incident allegedly staged by the actor himself in Chicago.
The suspect shouted: 'Mother f**ker. You racist little inbred b***h. C**t!'
UC-Berkeley campus police said that the attack took place at 3.29pm on Upper Sproul Plaza, and that two men initially approached the table confronting Williams.

'A physical confrontation ensued when one of the two men slapped the phone out of the victim’s hand,' the police statement said.
The attacker then knocked over the table and the two men fought over the phone.
During the incident, the suspect punched the victim several times causing injuries to the eye and nose.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
