Target practice: Shocking video shows cops enforcing Tim Walz's curfew by shooting paintballs at residents as they stood in their doorways | 13 Aug 2024 | Harrowing video shows dozens of riot cops enforcing Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz's curfew order spreading out in a Minneapolis neighborhood and peppering residents with paintballs while they stood on their porches and in their front doorways. The newly resurfaced clip, filmed May 30, 2020, by Tanya Kersson just outside her home, resembles a scene from a dystopian movie. It shows a tan Humvee rolling slowly down a quiet street in the Whittier neighborhood, followed by at least 25 heavily armored cops. "Go home! Get inside! Get in your house now, let's go!" the officers shouted as they traipsed down the street. The woman kept filming, at which point an officer can be heard saying "Light 'em up!" Suddenly, officers fired paintballs at the woman and her guests, the gun's muzzle flash clearly visible against the fading light of dusk.
