From the New York Post: Harrowing video shows dozens of riot cops enforcing Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s curfew order spreading out in a Minneapolis neighborhood and peppering residents with paintballs while they stood on their porches and in their front doorways.
The newly resurfaced clip, filmed May 30, 2020, by Tanya Kersson just outside her home, resembles a scene from a dystopian movie. It shows a tan Humvee rolling slowly down a quiet street in the Whittier neighborhood, followed by at least 25 heavily armored cops.
Kersson can be heard saying aloud, “Look at this, they just keep coming–” before she’s cut off by several officers barking orders at full volume.
“Go home! Get inside! Get in your house now, let’s go!” the officers shouted as they traipsed down the street.
The woman kept filming, at which point an officer can be heard saying “Light ’em up!”
The cops then open fire with their paintball guns, sending the family scrambling inside for safety.
Strangely, the person who originally posted the video has now removed it from her X page after the story published. Other copies are circulating on social media, however.
WATCH THIS:
Imagine a Governor in Minnesota directing his police force to canvas neighborhoods & shoot residents with paintball guns, residents sitting on their porch after curfew.
