No, to the best of my knowledge we don't have anything from Ngo beyond his word about his injuries, which he will gladly spin for capitalizing on the naivete of the media. Also, he was assaulted because he had doxed members of 'antifa' in the past and was attempting to do so there at the rally. His actions, and the actions of others like him, has placed real lives in danger.

Ngo is not an innocent journalist just 'reporting the facts'. He's a provocateur and propagandist who puts people's lives in danger and will gladly do so again and again. He doesn't deserve your sympathy, your tears, or your concern, especially not in the light of the actual threat of the white supremacist, fascist militia he works with.
