Follow up to this story from two days ago.
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] The Ventura County Sheriff's office held a presser on Tuesday following the death of David Kessler, a 69-year-old man who was killed on Sunday. Police stated that the suspect in the homicide was the individual who called 911 after Kessler suffered a head injury, and that a search warrant was executed on his home. They did not identify the suspect.

Ventura County Sheriff Jim Fryhoff began by expressing his condolences to the family and friends of the now-deceased victim.

"On Nov. 5, 2023, at approximately 3:20 in the evening, the sheriff's communication center received multiple calls regarding a possible assault in an unconscious male who was bleeding at the intersection of Thousand Oaks Boulevard and West Lake Boulevard in the city of Thousand Oaks," Fryhoff said.

"Flyers distributed on social media indicated a demonstration for freedom for Paleostine protest and the counter protest was led by we are pro Israel. There were an estimated 75 to 100 people at the demonstration between both groups."

Fryhoff said that the suspect of the homicide had dialed 911 himself, and was cooperative during the incident. He also revealed that a search warrant was executed on the suspect's home.

The lethal hit came from blunt force trauma on the back of the head, according to chief medical examiner Chris R. Young, who also spoke during the presser.

The Sheriff told news hounds they still do now know if a blow to the face, which was acknowledged by the chief medical examiner, caused the fall.

The Daily Mail has the name and photos of the accused murderer, identifying the victim as Paul Kessler, not David:

#2 Yesterday lots of commenters said "students" and faculty types would be found in abundance at these events. Seems like a good surmise.
