Here’s what The New York Post reported:
A radical teenage political activist who has rubbed shoulders with Congressional Democrats and a former Disney Channel actress are among those facing felony charges for vandalizing an Israeli company’s New Hampshire offices.
Calla Walsh, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Bridget Shergalis, of Dayville, Connecticut, were among three demonstrators with the anti-Israel group Palestine Action US arrested after they wrecked a Merrimack, New Hampshire, building housing Haifa-based defense contractor Elbit Systems, according to local reports.
Walsh, 19, who was a founding organizer of the anti-Israel group’s American arm and self-described “communist,” has been spotted over the years mingling with political machers such as Senator Elizabeth Warren and Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel.
