BLM mobs rioted for the third consecutive night in honor of Daunte Wright.
Police and protesters faced off again in Brooklyn Center after nightfall, with hundreds of protesters gathered in the city’s heavily guarded police headquarters, now ringed by concrete barriers and a tall metal fence, and where police in riot gear and National Guard soldiers stood watch. “Murderapolis” was scrawled with black spray paint on a concrete barrier.
“Whose street? Our street!” the crowd chanted under a light snowfall.
Driver’s security is also a concern during these riots.
During these ongoing nationwide riots, carriers and drivers are advised to remain in constant communication with each other, and fleets are urging their drivers to avoid potentially dangerous situations.
Commercial truck drivers across America have ended up in the crosshairs of nationwide protests in response to the death of George Floyd, and no Daunte Wright.
Protests, as well as rioting and looting in some areas, temporarily shut down major roadways and interstates, and created even greater safety concerns for truck drivers who are still trying to deliver essential goods amid the global pandemic.
A video that was sent to us by one of our readers in Minneapolis reveals a woman protesting the death of Daunte Wright and holding a sign that says ” everyone deserves goodbye” and tries to stop a large truck from moving.
The driver decided to run over the protester and the video at the end reveals the driver’s smile.

Why do people stand in the middle of the street? A car/truck is coming to get out of the way don’t stand there!

Those trucks haul 10-20 tons of frieght and even more. They don’t stop on a dime.
The guy didn’t want to be the next Reginald Denny.
Dang. He didn’t REALLY run her over. But...I liked the smile.
THIS.
Nuts; I wanted to see something more like a crushed zombie skull from The Walking Dead.
This won't stop until it's stopped by force by "the people" b/c our government won't do it.
Every driver and rioter should be shown the Reginald Denny video, drivers to learn why they should never stop for rioters and rioters to learn why they shouldn’t try to stop vehicles.
Hope the truck gets washed off and no damage happened.
“protester”
I wonder if the video is doctored. The smile could have been from first of video when he saw them. It’s all jumbled at the end.
This is the rule. When this started, many BLM protesters tried to stop traffic along I75 north of Cincinnati. Word went out, “We’re not stopping. No Reginald Denny’s here.”
I agree. And then it immediately ends.
I would want to be driving one of those big airport snowblowers.
One of the comments under the video said this video is a year old and doesn’t pertain to BLM.
“That video is over a year old and it was about strikers blocking and entrance to a factory, had nothing to to with BLM, the woman was killed, the driver said he did not and could not see her over the hood as he was trying look in his RVM to make sure his trailer cleared the fence behind him.”
The black Liberian mayor states that police should not be armed all the time.

“I don’t believe that officers need to necessarily have weapons every time they’re making a traffic stop,” Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, Mayor Mike Elliott said during a press conference Tuesday in response to the shooting death of Daunte Wright on Sunday.
Did she say goodbye before the truck removed her from the roadway?
The article update said the same thing but didn’t mention a dead protestor.
