VIDEO: Leftist Protester Killed, Dragged by FedEx Truck in Downtown St. Louis after Mob Shuts Down Highway and Attack His Truck
Gateway Pundit ^ | May 30, 2020 | Jim Hoft

On Thursday night far left protesters attempted to loot a moving UPS truck during their violent protests and rioting in Minneapolis.

The entire hoist was captured on video.

On Friday night far left protesters in downtown St. Louis shut down Highway 70 heading into St. Louis City and then rushed on the highway to frighten drivers.

One semi truck driver attempted an escape from the violent mob and ended up dragging a protester who was caught between his two trailers. The FedEx driver could not see him.

It is going to be interesting and instructive to see what follows.
Will the DA charge the FedEx driver? (Possible, not likely)
Will FedEx fire him? (probably)
Will the courts permit a $$$ civil suit by the dead man’s family against the FedEx and the driver? (Likely yes)

That “protestor” was obviously a graduate of the Rachael Corrie school of protest and civil disobedience...

IF that driver stops & gets out of his truck-—he is dead within 3 minutes. Punch the accelerator & get out of Dodge!!!

Play stupid games and win stupid prizes... No great loss, but I do feel sorry for the FedEx driver who killed the moron.

That moron's family will sue FedEx and the driver for murdering the moron. He was turning his life around. He was going to loot the FedEx truck to donate to the less fortunate. 😋

Was a FedEx Ground double trailer, Tractor had no FedEx markings, so probably a contractor, FedEx ground drivers are mostly independent contractors.

It’s entirely possible the driver had no clue, with people crowding and pounding on the truck.

It was a joke! I was just ragging on the author (and commenter) about “heist” and “hoist.” I slipped that in to see who was paying attention. You passed!

100%

The rioters were banging on his cab, more urgently and desperately in the end. No doubt he had no idea he was dragging a person - the dude was on the opposite side of the truck in between two trailers. He was worried about hitting people in front of him. He wasn’t about to stop and be beaten with a cinder block.
