Brian Bartels, 20-Year-Old Accused Of Inciting Violence And Riots In Pittsburgh, In Police Custody
KDKA CBS Pittsburgh ^

Posted on 06/02/2020 6:27:45 AM PDT by bryan999

Twenty-year-old Brian Bartels, the man accused of inciting violence and riots in Pittsburgh on Saturday, is in police custody.

Bartels turned himself in at police headquarters Monday. He arrived with an adult male and adult female.

Bartels is facing charges of institutional vandalism, rioting and reckless endangerment. According to police, he’s responsible for breaking the windows out of a Pittsburgh police car against the wishes of peaceful protesters.

After he was arrested, police say they received a call from Bartels’ attorney earlier in the day saying Bartel would turn himself in Monday afternoon. Bartels had no comment as he walked into police headquarters.

His attorney also told KDKA’s Nicole Ford he has no comment.

There was so much destruction downtown after Saturday’s violent demonstration, and police believe Bartels from the Allison Park area helped incite that violence.

Pittsburgh Police provided a photo of him wearing all black with a black bandanna around his face.

Besides Pittsburgh Police, Shaler Police, North Hills SRT and FBI Pittsburgh served a search warrant at a home in Shaler Sunday.

Bartels was not there, but investigators say they found evidence that links him to the protests — guns, spray paint and gloves. Also found during the search warrant execution was the sweatshirt matching the one seen in the video of the protest on Saturday.

He looks like an incel eco-freak. I read that it was his father who turned him in, btw. A little late to exercise parental authority, but I guess better late than never.

“I feel a certain degree of sympathy for the parents.”

Not I. They created this abomination.

“According to police, he’s responsible for breaking the windows out of a Pittsburgh police car against the wishes of peaceful protesters.”

Is this satire?

Please read my entire post.

Remember that old movie “The Bad Seed?” Sometimes decent families produce rotten kids.

We’ll known more as this case develops.

He arrived with Mommy and Daddy. I hope he gets to spend a long time behind bars with men who salivate over a white snowflake like him.

“He arrived with an adult male and adult female.” ...that makes 3 adults then. Don’t start with this “he’s only a child” BS!

____________________

As I said earlier, he's from only a few miles from our home .....

His father perhaps did not allow him to tee it up at the nearby great local golf club (Oakmont Country Club) ...... kid got bent out of shape.

Shagging balls was not his style.

No; in this case, it’s actually true.

He flipped off the African-American woman who got in his way to stop him; and the crowd was screaming for him to stop.

The Chicago 7 became famous as a result of their antics during the 1968 democrat convention and got rich riding their fame from it. Tom Hayden, Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, Bobby Seale were some.
Is this what this criminal is trying?
