Two women accused of stealing a Make America Great Again hat from a protester outside of Democratic nominee Joe Biden’s DNC acceptance speech will be charged with “hate crimes” along with assault, conspiracy, offensive touching, and endangering the welfare of a child according to Delaware Online.

As The Daily Wire reported back in August, two 21-year-old women were arrested in connection with an attack that happened outside of Biden’s DNC speech. The women, who were reportedly attending the event, tangled with a group of counter-protesters, stealing a woman’s MAGA hat, taunting a 7-year-old boy who went to retrieve the item, and then allegedly attacking a bystander — also a counter-protesters — who tried to intervene to protect the woman and her son.
