The riots that engulfed the USA could be marked by a real terrorist attack with numerous victims.
As News Front previously reported, in Minneapolis, from which protests began, a tanker rammed a crowd on a blocked highway due to protests.
According to reports, a car loaded with fuel flew into the crowd at a speed of about 65 km/h. It is noteworthy that here, on the I-35W highway bridge, it was a peaceful protest. People noticed a truck rushing towards them and started to run, but the car raced on those who did not have time to step aside.
When the car stopped, an angry mob pulled the driver out of the cab and began to beat. People were so embittered that the police who arrived at the scene of the incident had to threaten people with tear gas in order to pull out the provocateur and take them to the police station.
Later it turned out that Bogdan Vechirko, who served in the Ukrainian army, was driving a tanker, although at first the local media tried to attribute to him communications with the Russian troops.
According to available information, Vechirko is a native of the Vinnitsa region, he is 35 years old, and he is an ardent supporter of Donald Trump. American media claim that he was even a sponsor of the campaign of the current president of the United States.
After the police saved Vechirko from the people he was trying to kill, he was placed in the Hennepin County Prison without the right to bail. The motives for his action remain unknown. At the same time, it cannot be ruled out that in Minneapolis – the epicenter of the American anti-racist riot – an unsuccessful attempt was made to provoke in order to exacerbate the situation.
As you know, a similar provocation was used during the coup in Ukraine in 2014. On February 20, the radicals provoked bloodshed, which became a turning point in Euromaidan.
