a kiwi has died

A dedicated kiwi, contributed drama post-mortem

Police and a witness gave differing versions of how protesters were injured when a driver pulled into a group that had blocked an intersection on Wednesday night. The witness, Keith Rose, said the driver had his middle fingers raised before he accelerated through the group of people who were blocking Manchester Avenue and Sarah Street in the Grove neighborhood.

But St. Louis police said the driver stopped, honked and attempted to drive around the protesters before some of them surrounded his car and began hitting it with their hands and a flag pole.The police statement, from spokeswoman Schron Jackson, said that three protesters were injured after they jumped onto the car and fell off when the driver pulled away...

...He said the driver at one point stopped the car for a few seconds before accelerating gradually and driving into the group. Rose said that a protester was thrown over the hood of the car by the impact and others were hit by the car...

...The vigil that preceded the march was set up to honor Kenny “Kiwi” Herring, who was fatally shot by St. Louis police officers a day earlier. Police said Herring had used a knife to attack officers who had responded to a report of a stabbing. One officer was wounded. Friends and family say Herring was a transgender woman who, along with her partner, felt threatened by neighbors.

Can you "deadname" somebody who's dead? :\
 
"there was no evidence that it was Herring who attacked two people, including a responding officer, with a knife."

Because witness testimony is "no evidence". Knife wounds are "no evidence". The blood and the mess are "no evidence".

Fortunately, we've seen the "evidence I don't like is not evidence" routine with antitheists, so this isn't surprising.
