‘Light ‘em up!’: Police shoot paintballs at Minneapolis residents standing on their porch
Independent–Police officers and National Guard forces in Minneapolis shot paintballs at residents standing outside on their porch, as a curfew was enforced throughout the city.
A video posted on Twitter on Saturday night appears to show the Minnesota National Guard and state police ordering the residents of one street to go inside, before they turn their weapons on a group of residents.
The footage captures people rushing inside the property after shots are fired and shows where one member of the public has been hit by a paintball.
Armed officers can be heard shouting “light ‘em up” before the shots start.
