A video posted to Instagram on Saturday evening by user 'standwithseattlepd' shows a snow barrier built by protesters outside of the Seattle Police Department's East Precinct.
In the video, a police vehicle is seen rolling backwards after attempting to drive over the barrier.
"Antifa goons blocked the exit of the East Precinct with a pile of snow tonight, in an effort to stop vehicles from responding to emergency calls," the user claimed in the caption on a separate video showing a crowd of officers later standing around the barrier. Another video of the incident posted by journalist Andy Ngo shows the protesters cheering as the vehicle fails to make it over the snow barrier.
A full 15-minute long incident, posted by user "seattleblmfairy", shows a crowd of roughly a dozen demonstrators interacting with Seattle police.
One demonstrator says they are "just having a friendly snowball fight here at the EastPrecinct" while another can be heard saying the "cops are being aggressive and violating people's rights" as officers begin moving the group away from the blocked exit and proceed to start shoveling away the obstruction. One officer tells the group that they "cannot block police from exiting a police vehicle precinct" before another begins to push a protester back in an effort to move them away from the snow barrier. The officer is immediately met with two other protesters saying "stop touching her" and "we're literally not blocking your building."
At one point, another individual on crutches crumbles up a small piece of snow up close to an officer's bodycam. The officer does not react.
After a few minutes of shouting back and forth between police and protesters, chants of "peaceful protest" breakout. Officers then proceed to push the individual on crutches back before a small scuffle momentarily breaks out.

Meh, who cares? Let the animals burn it to the ground. Dems getting what Dems want.
But the FBI is protecting us from white supremacists who are basically all non democrat white people who are causing non stop mayhem be getting together and doing racist stuff or something .
They can’t be everywhere at once

Sick people. They (Antifa) may have even made some fake 911 calls themselves, just for the twisted pleasure of seeing the police struggle to get over that snow bank.
Almost no one goes to jail over it though, so it all continues.
Wood shampoos for all the antifa punks! Call in the Chicago riot cops from 1968, whackity-whunk, crackity-crunk!
Hey FBI, purchase billboard space asking for tips about who is behind this. Ask the credit card companies for every transaction made in the area. Get the cell tower logs, put stories in the paper that Antifa leaders are undercover FBI agents. Instead of protecting the evil doers how about protecting us for once.
Get out of the Blue areas !
That’s very nice,Antifa.
Some poor person is having a heart attack, or a woman is being violently abused, but no one can go help out, render assistance.
What if it were your sister being abused?
These people are stupid and cruel who cannot think about the consequences of their actions. Or they just don’t care.
What’s the purpose of this - they don’t know that Trump is no longer president? Oh! Oh! Joe might HAVE to speak up after all. Come on, Joe - give it a whirl...
Good ideas! Something must be done.
I agree. It’s Democrats’ problem. Now they have to actually govern.
Must be Trump supporters eh Joe...eh Kamala

They’ll do as they always do...pay em’!
ANTIFA is a mercenary force of the FBI so this will never happen.
My thoughts exactly. I could care less about Seattle
We have snowplows here in WI. A call to the Public Works department and the problem will be solved.
Trump dropped the ball HUGELY.
Had he made good on his promise to designate ANTIFA as a terrorist org, this and the issues on Jan 6th could have been avoided.
He really screwed the pooch.
