Cops want to I.D. white cyclist who attacked white children posting Black Lives Matter flyers (Video)
Police in Montgomery County, Maryland, want to identify a white cyclist who assaulted several white youngsters posting Black Lives Matter flyers along the Capital Crescent Trail on Monday in Bethesda. Caught on cell phone video, viewers can see the cyclist go after a little girl and wrestle the flyers away from her while her friends yell at the assailant. The cyclist then goes after the person taking the video.
The person taking the video said the cyclist tried pinning him to the ground using his bike.
The man who shot the video says when the suspect noticed him filming, the cyclist grabbed his bike and charged at him and knocked him down. The suspect began to ride his bike down the path, but turned back around and began yelling obscenities at the group. ~ KCTV 5
The video is so shocking that it was shared many times on social media platforms as tips flooded into the police. Well-meaning citizens accused several innocents, including Peter Weinberg, a retired police officer from Montgomery County, who has since been cleared.
Police are still tracking down leads and are now looking for a man who used to be employed by Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (MWAA).
“He was just cycling down the trail,” one of the victims, who wished to remain anonymous, told Patch. “He videoed us on his first pass by, then stopped about 50 feet passed us and asked to see my signs, in a friendly tone. When I went to show him the signs he ripped them out of my hands and then started to go after my friends. That’s when I started recording.” ~ The Patch
