Good to know that His actions weren’t intentional. But video shows theirs sure were. I’m sure they thanked him repeatedly and praised him for his driving skills for safely stopping without hitting anything or anybody as they instantly ripped him out of the cab and peacfully beat him. Maybe they are jeolous of him because he’s obviously the only one left in the area that has a job to do. Or maybe their admiration for truck drivers in general got the best of them.
Well he doesn't say whether it was intentionally done, just that he didn't intentionally bypass a closed ramp to enter freeway. Haven't released his name or hometown but I hope he just wasn't familiar w area and did a dump and was just headed back to wherever he needed to be and came upon the group, unaware and then stopped short.
Seems it did. Police: Driver in custody, no protesters reported hurt after truck drives into crowd on I-35W in Minneapolis "After being pulled from the truck, a mob of people grabbed at the driver. However, a video shared online shows a group of men protecting the driver. "We can not hurt him," one man said. "It defeats our purpose." Other members of the crowd shouted "stop" and told the crowd to get the police. "
Hopefully this “they” messed it up and the “trucker” messed it up because it’s been happy sunshine and lollipops until the evil trucker showed up that he speaks of doesn’t put a nationwide target on our backs like it has done to the cops. Be careful everyone.
Doesn't look like they were protecting the driver. They were acting as bouncers to keep others from breaking the barrier and being able to see whats going on and to give the thugs time to beat him. Thats what gangsters do.
I had heard on one of the broadcast channels that chains were hung down from bridges in an attempt to stop trucks to loot
This is gonna be smart arse but doesn’t feel good to be loved and wanted by the public again. Even if it is to loot your load and burn your truck and beat you to death. By golly It’s great to have a purpose again. Its been 30 years but we are finally useful again. Lol!
Our drivers are refusing to do any trips inside the 494/694 loop at night and refusing any inner city oxygen deliveries without police escorts. Hospitals are running low
