Minneapolis 'Umbrella Man' who sparked AutoZone fire is Hells Angels member: police
Fox News ^ | 30 July 2020 | Stephanie Pagones

A man captured on surveillance video smashing windows at a Minneapolis AutoZone in the wake of George Floyd’s death is a Hells Angels member bent on stirring up social unrest, police said.

Nicknamed “Umbrella Man” for his all-black getup that included a hood, gas mask and black umbrella, police said the man’s actions led to arson -- the first of several that sent peaceful protests into chaos.

Police identified the 32-year-old suspect through a tip last week. Minneapolis police spokesman John Elder told the Associated Press Tuesday he could not confirm the name of the person involved, but said the investigation remains open and active.

“This was the first fire that set off a string of fires and looting throughout the precinct and the rest of the city,” Minneapolis police arson investigator Erika Christensen wrote in a search warrant affidavit this week, according to the Star Tribune.

The riots spread to other parts of Minneapolis and St. Paul, and caused an estimated $500 million in damage. At least two people died — one a man who was fatally shot at a Minneapolis pawnshop and another whose burned body was found in the ruins of another pawnshop.

This was reported on other sources yesterday, but even today, no name or photo of the "suspect".

I'm calling BS on this one...

If they are wrong, and they may well be lying, they may be trying to provoke the Hells Angels into stirring up some conflict. I think the HA have been around long enough to not fall for such nonsense.

I got the impression from reading other articles that this one “white supremacist” is responsible for touching off all the looting, burning and murder in Minneapolis... 500 million dollars worth of damages.

...bent on stirring up social unrest, police said

Makes him the rarest kind of terrorist in the world: a terrorist whose motives we can actually know. Amazing. When he dies they should study his brain.

Effing liars. Don’t know his name...but a White supremacist Angel is what made the blacks riot and loot. Total BS.

Lies were the hallmark of the USSR. Welcome to the USSA

How can you identify a “member?” So they keep a roster or something?

This is a confidence trick by Democrats and Fox plays along. If you notice the PD spokesman is NOT confirming the headline. ONE off her meds Minneapolis PD arson investigator claimed the umbrella guy is a white supremacist and a local reporter ran with that fairy tale. There’s nothing to back it up. Zero.

This is gaslighting 101 here. Incredibly, the Dems are trying to blame antifa terrorism on “White Supremacists” (supporters of POTUS.)

Oh, it’s well known that law enforcement does not surveil, identify, and have a jacket on every HA member. That’s why they have no name. /s

This makes me think it was an Elected Official or some other “special” Public Employee like an Indoctrinator or principle.

Umbrella guy is antifa from central casting. “Uniform,” tactics, etc. Textbook antifa. No rando gets all that right. Guaranteed. That is a true believer.

Sonny Barger himself said that the HA is not and will not be taking a side in this. If the person in question is a club member (highly doubtful) ... he may be in a bit of trouble

In what universe would a Hell’s Angel riot because of a dead black man in MN?

The riots are caused by some mystery Hells Angels guy? Of course the Hells Angels are known white racists. Total BS, I’ll wager he rode a skateboard to the riot rather than a Harley.

Yep, the white man at Autozone was ground zero for all the unrest in the country. /sarc

( I still think he resembled the MN cop. )

Andy you know why? They haven't fingered a patsy who will "unfortunately be shot and killed while police attempted to arrest" and then blame it on yet. The beauty of setting up a patsy is that dead people can't hire a lawyer to poke holes in the deep state narrative.
