Man Sentenced To 4 Years And $12 Million Fine For Setting Police Precinct On Fire Along with the arson at the Minneapolis police precinct, another man is facing charges for firing an AK-47 style weapon into the building https://www.themix.net/2021/04/man-sente...ecinct-on-fire/ Published on Apr 30, 2021 at 10:34 AM by Erin Perri
A 23-year-old Minnesota man has been sentenced to four years in prison. He’s also been ordered to pay $12 million in restitution for his role in setting a police precinct ablaze during last year’s George Floyd riots.
Last May, Dylan Shakespeare Robinson trampled over a fence at the precinct. Then he lit a Molotov cocktail that was thrown by someone else into Minneapolis’s third precinct. He was just one of the people who rioted and committed arson during last year’s Black Lives Matter riots.
In December, the rioter pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit arson.
Co-Conspirators Have Pleaded Guilty
Three other rioters have also pleaded guilty to the same charge, so Robinson will not be the only one facing repercussions for this violent act.-- excerpt, rest at link above --
