eurweb | *The internet is convinced that Officer Jacob Pederson
of the Saint Paul Police Department is the mysterious man seen in a
viral video wearing all black with an umbrella and a pink gas mask
breaking out windows at a Minneapolis Auto Zone on Wednesday just
before the fire broke out and the riots started.
Pederson is being accused of inciting the chaos that erupted in the city, as the Auto Zone was the first building to burn.
Footage
of the scene shows a protester confronting the man, who then becomes
hostile and quickly attempts to flee the scene while being asked if he’s
a cop.
On Thursday, Twitter user @GypsyEyedBeauty tweeted a series of screenshots
allegedly from Pederson’s ex-wife, and the caption read, “Here are
screenshots from his ex wife confirming this is him, along with his
photo.”
