The police also destroyed the entire medical encampment that was put up in the same parking lot. What a disgrace.pic.twitter.com/1WEX72I5d6

This tow truck driver has been here all day. He later told me four
@CNN vehicles had their tires slashed here as well. There was an entire row of press vehicles that all had to be towed.pic.twitter.com/LG40yxlrdeShow this thread -

They do this so looters can’t use their cars to take stuff or use the cars as rams. It’s not an uncommon tactic. Just as a heads up.

Sorry to tell you, this was in a huge parking lot to an empty k-mart. Nothing to loot in the area. This was just the cops being assholes.

Kind of similar logic to kneeling on a man’s neck screaming, “are you gonna get up and get into the police car now?”
