Looter Shot Dead By Pawn Shop Owner During Riot In Minneapolis – Video

Looting Breaks Out In Minneapolis – Pawn Shop Owner Shoots ‘Looter’ On IG Live

Last night, the city of Minneapolis burned. Protesters began gathering in the early afternoon at the spot where 46-year-old George Floyd was killed by police on Memorial Day.

On Thursday morning, smoke hung over Minneapolis and looters carried merchandise from a damaged Target store with no interference by police.

Obscenities were spray painted on the exterior of the store. And that’s not the only store that was looted. Protesters broke into a Target store, a Cub Foods, a liquor store, a Dollar Tree and an auto parts store.

Fire erupted in the auto parts store, and city fire crews battled the flames. Protesters set other fires in the street and at an under-construction housing complex.

Police believe that the man was shot by the pawn shop owner. People on the ground say that the shop owner suspected that the man was attempting to loot his tore.

It’s not clear whether police plan to take any action against the shop owner.
