DOJ starts charging Lions of Antifa for their little Portland mischievousnesses


DOJ charges Seattle man for injuring Portland Fire and Rescue medic at Antifa riot
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] A Seattle man has been charged with civil disorder after allegedly shooting a firefighter with a ball bearing fired from a "wrist rocket" slingshot during a violent mostly peaceful Antifa
...the armed wing of the Democratic Party...
Portland protest on July 13.

According to court documents, a Portland Fire and Rescue firefighter wearing a large "medic" patch was crossing the street to brief his team near the downtown federal courthouse when 38-year-old Jesse Herman Bates allegedly shot him in the chest with a one-centimeter diameter metal ball bearing, causing bruising. The assault was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and is being prosecuted by U.S. Attorney for the District of Oregon, Billy Williams.

A Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office deputy identified Bates as the slingshot shooter on camera.

At approximately 3:50 a.m. on July 13, Portland Police say they found Bates near a tent in Lownsdale Square wielding a crowbar. The park is across the street from the Mark O. Hatfield U.S. Courthouse, the federal building targeted for weeks in arson attacks by Black Lives Matter-Antifa rioters. When officers approached Bates, he fled with the crowbar in-hand. After receiving a non-lethal munition to his backside, Bates dropped the crowbar and was taken into custody.

Bates was found carrying a stash of other weapons at the time of his arrest. Items found included a switchblade knife, flares, umbrellas, spray paint, what officials classified as pyrotechnics, half-inch glass slingshot ammunition, and two slingshots.
