This is a common tactic, to have 1-2 people act as if they are trying to keep things in control. This serves multiple purpose.
The people who are actually breaking things and attacking people are allowed to about their own business to intimidate people and disrupt the activities of their target. If these "calmers" were genuine, they would have handed over their fellow rioteers to police.
The calmers allow the fascists to deny that they were actually trying to do fascisty stuff
People who want to not believe that these people are fascists and need an excuse to explain themeselves otherwise, get a "fig leave" of an excuse that these terrorist fascists are still the good guys and that the rioteers are just the few misguided.
This is pretty much the tactics manual of the fascists and the islamoleftists and communists. It is used all over the world - in China, in Europe, in India, in Bangladesh, in Africa, in South America, in UK, in France, in Germany, all over the world.
