Police arrested Edan On in May for allegedly attacking a pro-Palestine protester at the UCLA encampment.

Edan On, the high school student arrested for allegedly attacking a pro-Palestinian demonstrator at an encampment on UCLA's campus in April will have his case referred to the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office, which will consider filing misdemeanor charges. District Attorney George Gascón's office made the announcement Friday. Beginning on April 30, pro-Israel counterprotesters clashed with demonstrators in the pro-Palestine encampment that had been established on campus.

"Detectives interviewed witnesses and victims and reviewed security camera footage from the pro-Palestinian demonstration to identify the suspect, who was not affiliated with the campus and was allegedly among a group who violently attacked students, faculty and staff April 30," according to a statement from the UCLA Police Department from that day.
