According to a tweet by Billy Heath, a reporter on the scene, the protesters clashed with police and set at least one construction vehicle on fire. Molotov cocktails were also allegedly thrown during the altercation.

The attack was part of a planned "week of action" promoted on Twitter, according to The Post Millennial Senior Editor Andy Ngo. He also noted that the group behind the attack has a history of promoting violence to prevent the establishment of a first responder training center southeast of Atlanta. "The violent attacks in #Atlanta today were organized. The direct actions were promoted weeks ago on the main account of the group representing the domestic terrorism movement to use violence to prevent a first responder training center southeast of Atlanta."

The situation on the ground was further described by Fox 5, which reported that "rocks, sticks and even a Molotov cocktail were thrown at police." Protesters had held a rally nearby before marching toward the construction site with makeshift shields. A riot began shortly thereafter, during which smoke plumes filled the sky, and one tractor was set on fire.

This is not the first time leftist militants have engaged in violent behavior in Atlanta. In February, an Atlanta police car was attacked and set on fire by the same group. Leftist militants had also called for a "night of rage" and vowed retribution after one of their comrades was shot and killed after allegedly opening fire on police officers trying to clear an autonomous zone.

The situation at the construction site has since been contained by law enforcement, with multiple agencies locking down Key Road SE to secure the area. The incident has once again brought attention to the violent tactics employed by extremist groups in the name of their causes.
