8-10 Somali Teens Armed With Hammers Attack Bystanders At East Bank Rail Station In MN; Media Oddly Quiet

Have you heard anything about this?

Alpha News MN has reported that a group of 8-10 Somali teens attacked travelers at the East Bank Light Rail Station in Minneapolis on Friday night. There were several injuries reported. (Here is the Minneapolis Police Department dispatch audio.)

This station stop is located next to the University of Minnesota campus.

I saw the news (KSTP) talk about it the day after it happened, then TOTAL Silence

Not surprised. This seems to happen a lot in the EU, it was just a matter of time.

Remember this next time some anti gunner asks you why you feel the need to carry.

Snopes said it really didn't happen.

Or, more precisely, it was a group of Somali teens, and they were armed with metal pipes, and they were attacking individuals at the LRT stop, but it wasn't a mob of Somali teens attacking commuters at a LRT stop.

Did a ‘Mob of Somali Teens’ Attack Minneapolis Commuters with Hammers in Racially Motivated Assault?
A cluster of right-leaning websites jumped into action based on preliminary details about a May 2019 incident. But what actually happened?

What's True
On 17 May 2019, University of Minnesota police officers cited two juveniles of Somali heritage for misdemeanors associated with brandishing pipes at a train station in the city.

What's False
According to University of Minnesota police, the incident did not involve a physical attack, did not cause any injuries, and was not racially motivated.

Snopes is far Left leaning.

How exactly does Snopes (or any other similar site) "verify" news stories?

Fake news verification. Find a story that fits your desired outcome and run with it.

I would presume by obtaining the original police report of the incident.

And disavowing any reports that ddisagree with your desired conclusion.

The MPD reports didn't mention injuries - this does not mean that there were no injuries.

So teens threatening people with pipes is ok now?

Why would it not be?
