Protesters from Black Lives Matter mobilized in Rochester, New York, attacked a Wegmans grocery store, and trapped approximately 100 customers inside.
The protests were provoked by the death of Daniel Prude, a black man who lost his life after a viral confrontation with the Rochester Police Department. Last month, Democrat New York Attorney General declared that a grand jury will not seek charges against policemen involved in the incident.

As local news reporter Michael Schwartz claims, the cadre of BLM supporters shouted, “We have a long walk today, we’re shutting s*** down!”
Then, approximately 200 people marched all the way to the Wegmans grocery store on East Avenue. When they got at the store, the crowd trapped about 100 customers inside.

“Hundreds of people trapped in the East Avenue #ROC Wegmans by this mob,” Bob Lonsberry, Rochester journalist and radio host, reported. “The Rochester Police Department is just watching and letting it happen. I guess fire codes and trespassing aren’t things in Rochester anymore. What an embarrassing day for the city and the PD.”

Justin Murphy, Democrat & Chronicle reporter, wrote on Twitter, “There are a bunch of shoppers inside Wegmans who aren’t being allowed to leave.”
Police reports showed that Prude was restrained by officers while waiting for the ambulance that the cops called for, the Daily Wire reported. As seen on the video evidence, Prude threatened policemen by saying, “Give me your gun, I need it.”
According to Forbes, Prude “had been taken to the local hospital for suicidal thoughts about eight hours before his encounter with police on March 22.”
