The incident unfolded in journalist Nick Shirley's latest video documenting leftist protests against President Donald Trump's immigration enforcement crackdown.

At one point during nighttime protests, a face mask-clad Antifa hooligan decided he was tired of Shirley filming and confronted him, chasing him away from the protest.

"Walk – and do not come back," the Antifa member shouted at the journalist, adding, "If you come back, I'm going to fuckin' smoke you, dude."

"Stop sticking your cameras in people's fuckin' face," the man told Shirley, who replied, "I have a right to be here. I have the right to film."
