Two members of the alt-right group Proud Boys pleaded guilty Friday for their role in a fight with Antifa protesters outside of the Metropolitan Republican Club in Manhattan last year, the New York Post reports. In all, ten members of the group reportedly appeared in New York State Supreme Court and have been recommended a variety of assault and riot charges by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office. Two of them have reportedly taken plea deals for a lesser charge of disorderly conduct and agreed to fives days of community service in exchange for no jail time. The cases against the other eight are pending. Two are due back in court later this month.
