Police had to rescue talk host Alex Jones after two protesters started a scuffle outside the Republican National Convention.

Jones was walking around near the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland on Tuesday with a bullhorn when two members of the 'Communist Party' allegedly attacked him.

According to the Daily Mail, it happened during a demonstration against police shootings of African-Americans that devolved into mayhem and violent brawls.

The pair of activists were shouting 'Nazi scum' as they walked towards the journalist and pushed him, according to reports.

The demonstrators on Tuesday - including anti-Muslim protesters, religious conservatives and marchers decrying racism and 'murder by police' - appeared outnumbered by law officers and members of the media.

Cleveland Police Chief Calvin Williams waded into crowds of demonstrators during the day, warning one group, 'It's an unlawful gathering. You're blocking a city street.' They eventually moved along.
