Clashes erupted in US’ San Diego city on Friday night hours after Republican Party’s likely presidential nominee Donald Trump held a rally.
Two class action lawsuits being considered in San Diego have accused Trump University of using deceptive practices as it brought in millions of dollars from customers who were told they would learn Trump’s techniques to become successful in the world of real estate.

At a press conference at the conclusion of the G7 summit in Ise-Shima, Japan, Mr Cameron was asked whether he would like to congratulate Mr Trump, after U.S. media reported he had secured the support of the 1,237 delegates needed to claim the nomination at the Republican convention in July.
“If I win, believe me, we’re going to start opening up the water so that you can have your farmers survive, so that your job market will get better”, Trump told cheering supporters. Trapped there, the number of protesters dwindled to several dozen as police pushed on with armored vehicles, firing pepper-balls and beanbag rounds at the crowd.
The loud and animated but mostly peaceful protesters outnumbered supporters outside, but inside, at least 10,000 people showed up to hear Trump speak.
The comments came a day after Mr Trump outlined an energy policy plan that relies heavily on expanding United States fossil fuel exploration and reducing environmental regulations.
