Overview
- The pardoned Jan. 6 participant and Florida Senate candidate led a permitted “March Against Minnesota Fraud” starting at Minneapolis City Hall toward Cedar-Riverside.
- On-scene videos show Lang bleeding, dragged, and trying to flee; he posted that he was stabbed, a claim not independently confirmed.
- Counterdemonstrators from the People’s Action Coalition Against Trump confronted the march, with footage showing attempts to pull Lang from a car.
- Lang used anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim rhetoric during the event and had vowed to burn a Quran at City Hall but did not do so.
- Local leaders organized patrols as police monitored the area, and the Minnesota National Guard was on alert with vehicles seen moving nearby.
