The University of California, Los Angeles police department announced Friday that it has made an arrest three weeks after violence broke out between protesters on campus.

Edan On, 18, was arrested Thursday amid charges of assault with a deadly weapon. Officers claimed he had no affiliation with UCLA. He was allegedly among those who were caught on camera beating pro-Palestinian protesters with sticks. Most wore masks during the encounter, which could make identifying the suspects difficult.
