SAN JOSE, Calif. (KGO) -- San Jose police have arrested Anthony Yi, 24, of San Jose, for three separate incidents involving robbery and assault and battery during a rally last week for presumptive Republican Party presidential nominee Donald Trump.

Since the June 2 rally at the downtown San Jose Convention Center, police have made an estimated eight arrests and are still looking for three suspects.

Among the people arrested are San Jose residents Robert Trillo, 18, Antonio Fernandez, 19, and Santa Clara resident Ahmed Abdirahman, 19, on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, police said.

Michael Kitaigorodsky, 19, also of San Jose, was also taken into custody for allegedly refusing to disperse, according to police.

Two San Jose juveniles, ages 16 and 17, were arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon and a 16-year-old Milpitas resident was arrested on suspicion of battery, police said.

The large rally left a police officer with a minor injury to his wrist after someone threw a metal object at him, according to police. About 300 to 400 people protested outside the rally for the presumed Republican presidential nominee, who had been expected to draw 12,000 to 15,000 supporters.

Anyone who has information on the suspects or has information on the alleged assaults is asked to call police at (408) 277-4161. Those who wish to remain anonymous may call Silicon Valley Crime Stoppers at (408) 947-7867.
