The pair brandished a handgun and an automatic weapon at the gathering which took place in St Louis, Missouri, on Sunday.

Reports say that around 300 people had broken down the entrance of a gated community and had attempted to march past when the confrontation took place.

The gun-toting couple, named locally as lawyers Mark and Patricia McCloskey, angrily warned protesters to stay away from their home in the wealthy, predominantly white neighbourhood of Forest Park.

One video circulating on social media shows the woman holding her gun at a protester wearing a ‘Hands up, don’t shoot’ t-shirt.
