Police Say The "Umbrella Man" At The George Floyd Protests Was A White Supremacist Trying To Incite Violence

Minneapolis investigators said the man is a member of the Hells Angels biker gang who started violence at what had been a peaceful protest.

Minneapolis investigators say a masked, umbrella-carrying man who was filmed in a viral video smashing windows during protests in the city in late May against the police killing of George Floyd was a white supremacist intent on inciting violence.

In an affidavit filed in state court on Monday as part of an application for a search warrant and seen by BuzzFeed News, an arson investigator with the Minneapolis Police Department identified the man as a 32-year-old member of the Hells Angels biker gang who intended to incite violence at the peaceful demonstration.

The news of his identity and the search warrant affidavit was first reported by the Star Tribune on Tuesday.

The man's identity drew widespread speculation after he was filmed on May 27 slowly and methodically smashing the windows of an AutoZone in Minneapolis, where protests erupted following the May 25 death of Floyd in police custody.

Catch him, jail him, prosecute him if he's a known person.

The white supremacist narrative is very weak and circumstantial at best. He's being paid to do this, enough money to make it worth his while.

Buzzfeed is not news. It is a liberal propaganda outlet.
They broke the Trump Russia collusion dossier story made up by the Clinton campaign. It has been proven completely fake and manufactured from the beginning and they knew it.

So, what makes a Hell's Angels member punching out windows anything but a simple criminal. It just shows he is getting paid enough to make the act worth the paycheck.

It in no way demonstrates what his views are on any race of people, so yeah, the "white supremacist" narrative is a dead horse to most of us and totally meaningless here.

Northwest Woodsman: A true Hells Angel would rather be cracking Antifa skulls than breaking windows. They may be outlaws, but I have found that they are patriotic outlaws. The media will have to come up with something better than this ridiculous claim.

Hells Angels were intelligence from the very beginning. Just like Hollywood and the fake Hippy Movement.
