Someone compiled the multiple angles of shooting number one:
I was confused by the silouette of the decedent. Apparently he took his shirt off and placed it on his head at some point after their initial encounter. I was expecting a bald headed silouette and assumed the shooter hit someone out of view.

We can make out where the shooter was, but its hard to tell what the other person was doing. Seems reasonable to bring charges if this is the best footage there is.

Why is he walking around during protests with a gun? Proper self defense would be not going to that volatile situation carrying a gun.

What did he throw at him? Looks like a bag or something.

Define "walking". Everything I've seen of him he was just guarding an area from looters with other people, and was later chased. People keep making it sound like he was roaming around. Is there something I missed?

I had only seen the terrible angle where they both pretty much disappear behind the car and you can't tell who got shot.

The headline is clearly inaccurate. He threw something but its not clear if anything separated from the (bag?) and if it connected.

Hopefully the cops got there fast enough to preserve some evidence. You know, that thing that they could not do at CHOP/ CHAZ and as a result there have been 0 arrests.

I don't think anyone is claiming he made good choices.

Unfortunately, some folks will feel the need to do something to defend property if the cops are outnumbered and the National Guard is not activated.

Day one, if the Guard is activated, do any militia dudes show up?

Allegedly activists lied about a suicide on social media


“ So I guess a guy killed another person in a parking garage, was chased on foot by police to a public exterior mall and shot himself. Now a large crowd is trying to loot the Target store and are being maced. You can't make this shit up.”

It literally doesn't matter. It's not about BLM at this point and probably never was.

*suicide footage tweet removed by MPD*

This asshole murder suspect eats his own gun, NOT an officer involved shooting, and we’re using that as an excuse to peacefully loot and riot in downtown Mpls. tonight?

It’s like facts don’t even matter.
It’s like this isn’t really about black lives.
It’s like we’re living in a fucking clown world.
