Scottsdale police said separately that misdemeanour charges filed in June accusing Paul of criminal trespass and unlawful assembly in connection with the Fashion Square"riots" were dismissed on Wednesday in conjunction with the federal probe.
Misdemeanour charges from that incident were likewise dropped against two men police described as Paul's associates, one of them a Las Vegas nightclub promoter. Police said dismissal of those charges was tied to completing the federal investigation, adding that prosecutors could refile the case if warranted.
Civil disturbances in Scottsdale on May 30 grew out of demonstrations triggered by the George Floyd killing that week. Police said Paul took part in the unrest and was present after the protest was declared an unlawful assembly. He also was accused of illegally entering the shopping mall and remaining inside after it was closed.
Paul denied that he or anyone with him took part in looting or vandalism, and said he was"documenting, not engaging" in, lawlessness.
