Shots rang out in Minneapolis early Saturday after federal police tried to subdue a man who was waving around a gun, according to law enforcement sources and video posted to social media.

A 39-second clip showed about half a dozen cops struggling with someone on the sidewalk in front of a donut shop at 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue, when the gunfire erupted.

The officers appeared to scatter after the barrage of shots went off, according to the footage.



The shooting happened after the man brandished a firearm with two magazines, a law enforcement source told The Post, sharing a photo of the firearm.

In a statement, city officials urged residents to stay calm and avoid the area.


“We are aware of reports of another shooting involving federal law enforcement in the area of 26th Street W and Nicollet Ave. We are working to confirm additional details,” the statement said.

More than 100 protesters had been at the scene when the encounter occurred. The man’s condition was not immediately known.





On Friday, protesters yelled obscenities at two people wearing plain clothes who they believed to be agents after protesters claimed their rental car was linked to the incident, according to video reviewed by The Post.

Neither person was an officer.



Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.) posted about the incident on X late morning Saturday as the details of the shooting were still unfolding.

“I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening,” he wrote.

“The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.”


Neither the White House or the Department of Homeland Security have said what precipitated the shooting, and did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Despite what the Post says about the protestor's condition, Fox News is reporting he died. Spiciness inbound.

Wrong, I've had to subdue plenty of people in a previous job. Unless the person is an absolute monster 2 v1 is more than enough, usually 1 v 1 will do it if you've got the strength (and training) advantage.

It's a piece of piss to subdue someone if you're well-trained and not a fat, unhealthy, scared, American mess.

I can't be arsed counting, but it looks like there's 7 or 8 of them struggling to get the situation under control.

Weak men who failed and let their country down in front of the world.

I'm not sure how posting weak British men (who got the job done without making international headlines) disproves my point.

"How does posting non-american cops doing the exact same thing I tried pinning on Murrrrrrican cops disprove my point?"

Gee, I wonder.


Say Mr. gigachad STRONK MAN, what was that job you worked at where you totally 1v1'd and tactically subdued a bunch of guys with your elite training? You know the entire basis of your argument?

Because if it involved you wrestling a bunch of drunk emaciated britoid teenagers outside a pub it'd kinda make all the bluster you've been shitting out seem kinda retarded and not the same whatsoever to actual law enforcement.

Highly unlikely.

The last British police officer to die from a gunshot wound was on 25th September 2020.

Only 2 police officers have died since then, one hit by a train while trying to save someone and another accidentally hit by a car while attending a road traffic incident.

Show me some footage of a single police officer subduing someone who is actively resisting without pepper spray, tasers, or bludgeoning.

Well, I called those British police officers weak, but they did get the job done (5 of them)

It's irrelevant though because these fat useless Americans utterly failed at the subduing part (8 of them?) and completely fucked it for all to see.

The guy was shot dead. What can be more subduing than that?

If I showed you 1000 successful subduals vs the one you are focusing on, I'm guessing you'd still say the same thing.
I'd like you to prove your point than one or two people can subdue someone who is violently resisting without harm (spray, taser, stick, fist)

Or, even worse, they're going to take their fucking kid and the kid's gonna get hurt. They'll shoot, ICE will retaliate, some kid will die and it just blows up.

They truly don't know what "fascism" is. They have NO IDEA how good they fucking have it. And they absolutely are going to take this fucking LARPing to another level.

Watch the Renee Good video, her damn wife literally yells "WHY DID YOU HAVE TO USE REAL BULLETS?" Like....bitch this isn't a SIM. This is real life. Going to protest is one thing. Going and obstructing law enforcement AND THEN GETTING PHYSICALLY INVOLVEED is a whole other. And I would bet my life that this is "the plan" from some of the organizers high up enough. These morons don't see they're being pawns, and they're fucking dying for shit they don't understand.

People who have, historically, had to fight against ACTUAL AUTHORATARIAN REGIMES didn't just go marching around "HEY YOU'RE BAD STOP ::WHITSLE WHISTLE WHISTLE::" because those regimes would gun them ALL DOWN. Not just 1 for trying to hit them with a car or 1 in a cluterfuck fight. They'd MOW THEM ALL DOWN. These fucking idiots have NO CLUE how good they have it. Likewise, real resistance fighters of those regimes had to be SMART. Going around with a whistle would be a death sentence. They very much WOULD NEVER bring their kids with. They played it smart, worked hard, and didn't act like 12 year olds who are mad they're not getting chicken nuggies for dinner.

The LARPing is so fucking annoying, it's the most irritating and disingenuous shit. I wish these fucks would get air dropped into North Korea or some shit.

They aren't called useful idiots because it sounds nice.
 
Bringing your kid to a protest has gotta be one of the most insanely irresponsible things you can do as a parent, especially when you know it's specifically about confronting and impeding law enforcement mid-operation.

Either you're so retarded that you don't understand bringing small children to a place full of teargas, flashbangs, and crowds of people screaming and blowing whistles is a bad idea, or you understand perfectly well that it's dangerous and bring the kid anyway to use them as meat shields for the cause.

Either way you shouldn't be a parent.

Men outside of your own family only cry outside of their own home for the purpose of manipulating you.

Liberals think it's proof of a man's sincerity.
