Activist Assault During Shia March | Detroit News
Description
A political activist known for anti-immigrant rhetoric was brutally attacked with rocks and punches during a peaceful Shia Muslim Arbaeen march in Dearborn — sparking an arrest and renewed calls for accountability. Jake Lang, who used a bullhorn to chant against illegal immigration and support ICE, was assaulted from behind and chased as videos captured the violent confrontation. Police Chief Issa Shahin affirmed that while free speech is protected, physical violence will not be tolerated — and all perpetrators will face consequences. The arrested suspect remains in custody without bond as authorities urge the public to come forward with tips. This incident adds to Lang’s troubling history, including ties to the January 6 Capitol riot and prior arrests.
