Overview
- Destiny and Shawn Jackson say an agent rolled a tear gas canister under their SUV as protests surged, trapping them and their six children in fumes.
- Video and eyewitness accounts described airbags deploying and doors auto-locking before bystanders helped evacuate the children to a nearby home.
- First responders reported the 6-month-old was breathing and stable but in serious condition before transport, and multiple children received hospital care.
- DHS said agents faced assaults from 'rioters and agitators,' asserted they followed training, and stated the family was not targeted.
- Minnesota’s attorney general said the family was caught in the middle, as a recent federal court order restricts some crowd-control tactics during the ongoing operation.
