Minnesota State Patrol just fired tear gas at reporters and photographers at point blank range.
Update: We are safe. Just filed the story of what happened @Latimes
I got hit with a rubber bullet I think, maybe two 
So grateful for good Samaritans Mai Candiotti and Trish Lundburg, who claimed to be “Minnesota nice” but actually is for real
That’s the PG version of my leg courtesy of @MnDPS_MSP still going to report tonight and tomorrow
I spent the day out talking to people about the mismanaged police response. Then I experienced it. Minneapolis is center stage for a nation’s turmoil and rage latimes.com/world-nation/s…
Story posting soon here: latimes.com/world-nation/l…
If you appreciate what we do - and by we I mean all of us reporters and photogs - please subscribe to @latimes and your local paper. Many of my colleagues are furloughed, a deal our union @latguild worked out to save jobs during the #COVIDpandemic but others have lost their jobs.
Going to pick up my coworker from the hospital - hope police honor my press badge and let me through. @MinneapolisPD @CityMinneapolis
Here’s the story of how @Carolyn_Cole and I were fired on by @MnDPS_MSP #Minneapolis Times reporter recounts being hit with tear gas and rubber bullets by Minnesota police latimes.com/world-nation/s…
Got to hospital to get @Carolyn_Cole and they’re on lockdown treating a shooting victim. She apparently photographed the whole thing so stay tuned for an update from her tomorrow @latimes
Back from picking up @Carolyn_Cole we saw some people defying curfew who did not appear to be protesters. Some police stationed at corners.
