Per a New York Timesreport, Daniel P. Borden, one of the multiple assailants who attacked 20-year-old Deandre Harris during the infamous "Unite the Right" rally on August 12 has been arrested.

Lee Merritt told the New York Times, the men responsible for his client's assault -- video of which was disseminated across social media on and after August 12 -- have been identified largely thanks to journalist and activist Shaun King of theNew York Daily News.
Shortly after video of Harris' assault hit social media, King began sharing photos of the assailants in hopes that others on Twitter might have clues as to their identities. These posts helped identify Borden and Ramos, and King is still working to identify the other assailants, even vetting suspects personally before releasing names.
