Mob Torches Home, Throws Bricks At Officers During Search For Missing Teens
2020-06-26
[DAILYWIRE] Sparked by a mix of anti-police sentiment, "vigilantism," and apparent misinformation via social media, chaos erupted in Milwaukee on Tuesday during the search for missing teen girls. According to local news reports and video footage, in the process of the urgent search, officers and other first responders had bricks thrown at them, three people were maimed in a related shooting, and a house was burned to the ground.

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Wednesday that the crowd outside the home that was later burned to the ground included "a mix of neighbors observing the situation, people expressing frustration with police and activists who’d marched in Milwaukee’s racial justice protests."

"What started Tuesday as a missing-persons investigation morphed over the course of several hours as tensions about police treatment ran high and rumors spread online," the report outlined. "By nightfall, three people — including two 14-year-olds — had been shot, a house was set on fire, and police had fired tear gas and pepper spray on some members of a scattered crowd of hundreds who’d gathered outside a Milwaukee house where police earlier conducted an investigation into two missing teenage girls."

#3  Sketchy neighborhood, but by far not the worst in the Beer Capital.

Resulting product of the 'Great Society' and reliable Dem municipal governance since the '70s.

Attempt to set my house on fire you'd better be prepared for a rapid kinetic response.
