A Minneapolis police arson investigator said the man’s actions at the AutoZone on East Lake Street set off a chain reaction that led to days of looting and rioting.

The actions of this person created an atmosphere of hostility and tension. Your affiant believes that this individual’s sole aim was to incite violence.” Police identified the suspect thanks to a tip that came via email last week, Christensen said. https://www.startribune.com/police-umbrella-man-was-a-white-supremacist-trying-to-incite-george-floyd-rioting/571932272/ [/quote] I’m sure a skin head was on tap with a full face gas mask, black umbrella and hammer to waltz right into a murderous crowd for the great hitler....
