Calgary Police have charged Adora Nwofor, president of Black Lives Matter YYC, with one count of assault and one count of mischief stemming from a protest held on International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia.
That protest occurred on May 17 in front of Western Canada High School, and was attended by Ontario based anti-Transgender activist Josh Alexander.
Police said that hate motivation was deemed a factor in the incident.
Calgary activist Taylor McNallie was charged earlier this month with two counts of assault, one count of sexual assault, and one count of unlawful confinement for alleged actions at that same protest.
“The investigation remains ongoing with additional charges against other individuals pending,” said CPS.
Nwofor will appear in court on July 27.
