MINNEAPOLIS — A tanker truck drove into a throng of protesters on a closed interstate near Minneapolis on Sunday, with the driver pulled from his rig and beaten, as major U.S. cities imposed curfews in fear of another night of demonstrations against police brutality descending into violence.
It did not appear any of the marchers were injured when the truck raced towards them on I-35, blowing its horn, sending protesters scattering before coming to a stop, according to the witness and a tweet by the Minnesota Department of Public Security (MNDPS).
Police arrived soon after and arrested the truck driver, who was taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, MNDPS said.
Video of the incident shows protesters swarming the vehicle before it comes to a stop.

2.) I have seen multiple videos of businesses being looted, etc, and they don't look like white supremacists unless these types are expanding their demographic makeup.
3.) If Antifa is anti-fascist, then why are there time and again, another one yet today, videos showing a person holding a U.S. flag getting attacked at one of their street gatherings? /rhetorical.
I guess they are anti-Jesus "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you!" /s.
4.) Glad the police arrived to save the truck driver...
After the riots eventually end and they’ve looted, pillaged, and burned their own neighborhoods, with many businesses subsequently leaving or never reopening:
“Man, we can’t find no jobs!”
And not one among the mob will identify the perps. These individuals are loathsome.
RULE # 1: NO braking/NO stopping.
“Police arrived soon after and arrested the truck driver”
What a state!
Hell, the truck driver did absolutely NOTHING wrong. And the cops arrest HIM but not the “protesters” who beat him and were blocking the interstate?

For real. There are signs all over here that say no pedestrians on the interstate. He should get a medal.
Mom always said, don't play in the street.
Where is Mad Max when you need him !
“...RULE # 1: NO braking/NO stopping....”
Exactly. Once one stops, they will immediately swarm you and likely kill you, especially if you happen to be white.
Best thing is to just keep on truckin’. IF they get hit, they get hit.
It’s better to be arrested and alive, than to be beat to death by a bunch of feral animals.
Yes, I’m glad the police arrived; what about the looters and vandals? In terms of arresting someone, I mean. Why the truck driver and not them?
Hope he gets combat pay.
It must be a lot easier to arrest the victim than to deal with a whole lynch mob.
Auntie Fascists are PRO-Lynch Mob. They want to string up CEOs from lamp posts but they will take the bodies of those who work for “The Man” since they can’t reach the CEO.
The guy is driving a bomb on wheels, he can’t just slam on his breaks.
Wonder if the police beat him.
Police beatings don’t always make the news and only in certain circumstances cause public outrage.
Crooked cops killing two people in their own home and attempting to plant drugs at the scene and lying in the report and the chief of police lying to back up his crooked men? Unless you are in Texas you probably didn’t hear about that one.
I transport bulk propane in my semi and trailer, and drive thru Seattle and Portland daily. I watch the DOT webcams to see where trouble is, and avoid it. If that fails, I am very well armed. This tanker driver on I-35 wasn’t very sharp.
Worst case, I will donate my trailer load of propane to the demonstrators, in raw, liquid form.
This is war now.
I won’t go alone, that’s a guarantee. That much propane leaves a very large blast radius.
Soros DAs back the carjackers.
