Police officer suspended for allegedly urging drivers to drive over Black Lives Matters protesters
A police sergeant in St. Paul, Minn., has been placed on administrative leave after he allegedly posted an inflammatory statement online, telling motorists to run over Black Lives Matter “idiots” participating in a march on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

“Run them over,” Sgt. Jeffrey M. Rothecker allegedly wrote on Facebook, according to Fox affiliate KMSP. “Keep traffic flowing and don’t slow down for any of these idiots who try and block the street.”

The comment was spotted on Saturday by Andrew Henderson, a community activist who monitors police activity by filming authorities and posting his footage online, according to the Star Tribune.

“I was just flabbergasted,” Henderson told the newspaper. “A law enforcement officer is supposed to serve and protect the people, not incite violence against them.”

Henderson recorded himself filing an internal affairs complaint about the post, in which he named Rothecker. Henderson told the Star Tribune that he believed the Facebook account belonged to Rothecker.

The St. Paul Police Department told KMSP that an officer “has been put on administrative leave,” though the department has not publicly identified Rothecker.

But St. Paul Police Federation attorney Chris Wachtler told the Star Tribune that the union is representing Rothecker.

Police told KMSP that the Facebook account has since been “taken down,” though they haven’t said by whom.
