The far-right influencer posted his mug shot on Friday after his arrest over allegations that he shoved a woman and broke her phone.

Summary

Far-right influencer Nick Fuentes faces a battery charge for allegedly pepper-spraying and shoving a woman, Marla Rose, outside his Illinois home on Nov. 10.

Rose claims she visited his house after his viral “Your body, my choice” abortion post and was assaulted, with her phone damaged.

Fuentes, arrested and released the same day, cited safety fears over doxxing and death threats. Police confirmed no visible injuries but noted witness accounts.

Fuentes’ court date is Dec. 19, and Rose has hinted at pursuing a civil case.

    Castle Doctrine doesn’t apply on the sidewalk or street in front of your house.

      It wasn’t on the sidewalk or street. It was on his doorstep. However, I’m pretty sure that walking to the door of someone’s house and knocking on it doesn’t present a threat to the occupants of the house.

      Edit: I am told that it wasn’t a knock, but a doorbell ring. This could be important, as the presence of a doorbell may amount to an invitation to press it.
