I know of at least 3 top-notch Intl #OSINT investigative groups digging into the "umbrella man". He causally walked up & broke out windows in the Autozone store before walking around to the back. This graffiti seems especially provocative. Hrs later Autozone was 1st bldg to burn

Later that evening this is one of the iconic pictures from the #MinneapolisRiot protest ... of the Autozone store burning. Photo credit I believe is to @NBCNews

Here is just one of many images of Umbrella man you can now find circulating on the internet holding the red hammer ... #MinneapolisRiot

Initial article just out by TruthorFiction #MinneapolisRiot

Looks like someone else has also spliced the videos together in the proper sequence. Cant believe there is now a hashtag called #UmbrellaMan #MinneapolisRiot. For the record we aren't sure now if the guy in pink knows him or is just continuing 2 follow him

Minnesota Attorney General @AGEllison is looking for information as to the identity of the #UmbrellaMan #MinneapolisRiot #GeorgeFloyd

It seems likely there was more than one #UmbrellaMan. This FB post shows another guy pretty much in all black, with backpack, & carrying a rock. Also has a good sense of where the security cameras are. But different jacket & respirator from the other guy m.facebook.com/story.php?stor…

Holy Sh$t they have apparently caught #UmbrellaMan -- "Police: 'Umbrella Man' was a white supremacist trying to incite George Floyd rioting" #BLM #GeorgeFloyd

Remember this #WCCO reporter who accidentally caught the #UmbrellaMan on camera after he had gotten pepper sprayed?

Here is a great screenshot of #UmbrellaMan in the background from @Dymanh 's on camera live interview at the time.

Brad @SvensonBrad took some incredible footage during the George Floyd protests and deserves a big shout out .. even after being tear gassed probably multiple times

Exact same thing done in May to convince everyone that Jacob Peterson, a police officer was #UmbrellaMan. Turns out Jacob was nowhere near AutoZone based on timestamped security footage. New photomerge of current suspect. Good lesson for the online mob.
