[mainer]

The child was hanging posters in support of George Lloyd. The biker was so incensed he went after her, then went after the man videotaping it. He needs to be identified.

1. He will be identified.

[jayfish]

2. Looks Like He's One Of Them.

Nobody wears stupid f'ing mirrored Aviators like that.

[Patterson]

3. Is that a tattoo on his right hand or part of a glove?

[mainer]

5. Looks like a glove. Too bad. A tattoo would be really helpful

local cyclers should know who he is. And his attacking a little girl will get everyone incensed.

4. Sing it with me, folks!

6. I had to go to the post office this morning. Only one other person there, and he was masked.

There were large cardboard boxes in front of the counter to keep people at a distance.
On the box in front of me someone had written 'Covid is a hoax. Made up by democrat (sic) and liberal media.'
I didn't have a pen, but if I had one I would have written 'STUPID' with an arrow to the ignorance.
These people are brainwashed, and frankly, beneath my pity.

[Roland99]

7. I would've dropped the phone and then dropped him

Going after a kid?!?!

[2naSalit]

17. I would have hit him

with his fucking bike and then heaved it over the fence. Also a good solid kick to the knee from front or side would have helped.

8. Yes, he will be identified and is in trouble. Imagine the

group had more prints to put up.

[essme]

33. Well touching (grabbing, hitting with object) is battery and the threats are assault - on a minor.

5-10 for you fuckface. If you are lucky.

[PTWB]

46. Using force to steal property robbery

[Hortensis]

56. Even if charges were downgraded to misdemeanor for

first offense or some such thing, he'll still have legal problems, legal bills, likely community service, soaked for fees for bad group counseling with a bunch of similar losers, and a record. He could have a professional license at risk.

Plus, and imo this is the best part, coworkers, acquaintances, employer, or clients if self employed will find out. And what happens to him will be an object lesson for some not too stupid to learn from the mistakes of others. Sooo unfair, though!

[Cattledog]

9. K&R

[mainer]

10. I love how the other girl swoops in to protect the smaller one

puts up her hand and commands him not to touch her. A little warrior princess.

[Demovictory9]

47. me too. the body language of the little girl... such fright... and still he came after her

[lpbk2713]

12. He's a public menace.

He assaulted three people. Find him and dox him soon.

[SamKnause]

13. Why didn't the adults knock the fuck out of him ???

That poor little girl.

I hope he spends time in jail.

[mainer]

14. I think they might all have been kids

they have their faces hidden to protect their privacy, but they don't seem much older than teens

[essme]

18. They looked like young HS kids

to me-- maybe 10th grade. The younger girl looks to be about 5th-6th grade.

That guy needs to be arrested immediately. He's dangerous as hell.

[sop]

16. Show these images to all the bike shop employees in the area, they'll ID the guy.

[Doodley]

19. My psychological profile on the biker:

He loves Donald Trump - sees him as a role model.

He hates Obama - sees him as the worst thing to happen to America.

He's a racist, like his parents were.

He won't tolerate any criticism of his politics.

He won't tolerate any criticism of himself.

He spends a lot of time at the gym, but it is for reasons of vanity.

He doesn't believe in climate change - it's mostly a liberal hoax.

He owns at least one gun and goes to the shooting range.

He doesn't visit his parents unless he needs something.

All in all, he's a typical Trump douchebag.

[smirkymonkey]

51. I don't know about spending too much time at the gym.

He looks a bit doughy there. If he does go, it's all for show. Also, he has an extremely punchable face. There is something about people with no lips that makes me feel hostile toward them. They usually tend to fit a certain profile. Like the one you mentioned above. I can't prove it, but it's just been an observation of mine.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

20. Floyd. The man deserves a right to his own name. Especially at this point. . . . nt

[DeSmet]

21. They'll catch him

And please let us now when they do

[Aviation Pro]

22. You are fucked, stud.

Your employer will deal with you.

[onethatcares]

23. where have we seen a bike used like that?

somewhere in D.C. I think.

[LuckyLib]

24. He won't be biking anytime soon. Helmet and bike together

are the ID. Or someone who knows him will ID him. Dude, everything is filmed now. You won’t escape this!

[Ztolkins]

25. Start spreading his photo around precincts.

You'll find him.

[C Moon]

26. That won't take long. HA HA! Piece of low-life TRASH!!!!

I'm guessing he'll turn himself in once he sees this on the news or online.
Picking fights with CHILDREN????!!
I hope someone recognizes him on the street and a big gang of people chase him down.

[paleotn]

27. Looks like a cop.

[bluestarone]

31. You know what?

I was thinking the same thing!

[Blecht]

36. Yup

That's what I was thinking -- Det. Lopez should check his own coworkers first.

[uponit7771]

37. +1, you know its fuckin shame that its plausible seeing how they've acted in the last week. Some PDs

... need to clean house quick fast

[Kid Berwyn]

40. Mebbe angry Blackwater.

Got a real rhoid rage aspect.

[Kali]

48. I got that vibe too.

curious about the outcome of this.

[lunasun]

28. Another violent American fascist psycho

29. Assault on a child. Period

Victim Posting Racial Injustice Flyers Assaulted by Cyclist on Capital Crescent Trail
By Pat Collins • Published June 3, 2020

Link: https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/victim-posting-racial-injustice-flyers-assaulted-by-cyclist-on-capital-crescent-trail/2322251/

(snips)

Police are looking for a cyclist wanted for attacking a man with his bike on the Capital Crescent Trail. The victim, who asked to remain anonymous, said he and others were posting flyers in support of the George Floyd protests Monday morning when they came across the cyclist near MacArthur Boulevard.
+++
The video shows the cyclist approach a girl and take flyers from her, the victim said. “He sees me recording him and sees the fact that I recorded him as he was doing that, and he grabs his bike and he runs it into me and pins me to the ground,” the man who recorded the incident said.

The video shows the cyclist rushing at the victim. The victim said the man used profanity, called them deviants and said they were inciting riots.
+++
Montgomery County Park Police are circulating pictures of the man trying to identify him and question him about the incident.

I noticed that guy walked really weird as if he has a back problem. I'll bet he's apprehended soon considering this is all over the internet. He'll be facing assault and theft charges.

KY........

[TruckFump]

41. Could be wearing bike shoes

Is so, the bike, helmet and shoes — he’s into bicycling. Someone knows him.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

44. Yes, check out the replies on that police twitter page.

Sharp people have already done tentative ID on his shoes and bike. This thing is all over Washington area news, so I'll bet he doesn't last long.

Between bike shops and sports shoe shops and the photos all over public and social media, he does not stand a chance unless he completely disappears from the planet.

[TruckFump]

50. Totally despicable a-hole 🤬

Picking on a little girl. I hope he’s picked up and does not have a court appearance until Monday morning.

[Blue_true]

54. The taping on his bike's handlebars is pretty distinctive.

Most avid cyclists don't go with light blue tape color.

[TruckFump]

55. Good observation

I rode a lot in the 70s. Had an orange Mindia with hand-cut lugs. If you are a cyclist, you will notice unusual bikes and add-ons. Someone will put him for assaulting a child.

[Blue_true]

58. I used flat colored tape. Bright handlebar tape can be a distraction. nt

[mercuryblues]

70. I thought you were going to finish with...

When he appears for his court date, he'll be in a wheelchair.

[raccoon]

32. At first I read "Trump assaults child"..

And I wasn’t very surprised.

[albacore]

34. trump likes 'em young, alright! nt

[TheFourthMind]

35. This is what white supremacy looks like. No fear of laws. No fear of consequences. n/t

[MLAA]

38. Another asshole about to lose his job!

[Ferrets are Cool]

39. I wish he would lose his freedom. nt

[MLAA]

59. I can live with both, he deserves it!

[Blue Owl]

42. Hey that's Pants Loadstrong

n/t

[Wawannabe]

71. Oh ho ho ho ho!

Buuurrrrrrrrrrnn!

[Demovictory9]

43. OMG. that was some rough handling. Check that his wife & kids are ok. He moved so quickly towards

violence.

[Mariana]

67. Yeah, it looks like he's had plenty of practice roughing up kids.

He didn't even hesitate.

[Demovictory9]

68. the fact that the much smaller little girl didn't stop him. who grabs someone else's kid in anger?

[NBachers]

45. This guy's a real disturbo

[lpbk2713]

49. If those glasses are any indication ...

he's a chain gang guard out of Cool Hand Luke.

[dalton99a]

52. This asshole must be identified.

[Blue_true]

63. He will be. My guess, his boss has already fired him if he works.

If he owns a business, he just as well need to close or sell it tonight.

[Dorian Gray]

53. I really hope

that guy gets arrested. (Or a chair broken over his head.) Either one.

[Blue_true]

66. What he did was assault three people, likely all children.

He has a serious problem, in many ways.

[GulfCoast66]

57. I'm guessing he's an attorney for some right wing group

Or a congressional staffer. Either way it will soon be ex-employee.

[Blue_true]

61. Yeah, talk about ending a career. But he deserves every bad thing that is

coming to him. That little girl that he assaulted had body motion that said that she was terrified. Imagine an adult assaulting a 10-12 year old who was doing something that our Constitution allows.

[GulfCoast66]

65. That's why I don't think he is a long time DC resident

But a privileged POS in for a political job.

I’m guessing where he is from he could get away with this. I’m thinking the DC AG will not give a shit about his pedigree.

.

[Blue_true]

60. Someone please post when the guy gets arrested.

He better be independently wealthy, because his job or business is gone.

People like him scream about "freedom of speech". But that only applies to them and they want to be able to say anything, including stuff that endanger other people.

[USALiberal]

62. Kick to find this asshole! nt

[MerryBlooms]

64. Seems like just another day for him- no hesitation whatsoever.

[Demovictory9]

69. watching again, it was a double attack. The girl, then the video person

[dalton99a]

73. He rammed the camera guy and tried to pin him to the ground with his bike.

[oasis]

72. Kick for ID. This Brownshirt must be exposed. nt

[Cha]

74. It appears that he was enraged by whatever signs/fliers these kids were putting up and was trying to

[Cha]

75. Here's an Enhanced pic of the Attacker.. you can see what he looks like better..

Link to tweet

[BComplex]

77. He handles himself like a cop. Entitled. Angry.

Not worried about consequences. A little paunch that says too many donuts at the precinct. The sunglasses are the real giveaway. And his face, actually, is set like a mean cop.

I'm going with cop. Which is probably why nobody has identified him that knows him.

[greenjar_01]

78. Loads of cop energy

Current or retired law enforcement'd be my guess too.

[Trailrider1951]

82. I totally agree with you

20 years ago I belonged to a bike club and did plenty of road and trail riding with them. This guy looks like a few of the cops who were members. Also, this assclown was apparently enraged by the flyers they were posting:




If that was my daughter he was assaulting, I would have kicked his nuts into next week!

[KY_EnviroGuy]

79. Today from the Attorney General of Maryland.....

UPDATE: Thanks for the great response. Park Police have a strong suspect as a result. But, please don't name individuals & risk harm to innocent people. Please share further info with Det. Lopez @ 301-929-2774.
12:33 PM · Jun 5, 2020

A second source (WJLA TV) reports they are investigating a suspect.

See: https://wjla.com/news/local/man-wanted-for-assault-on-capital-crescent-trail-in-montgomery-county

Also checked Park Police twitter but no updates there.

Way too many idiots on twitter naming certain people in speculation. Damn good way to get hauled into court.

KY

[yellowcanine]

83. "strong suspect" Translation: "we are working with his lawyer to voluntarily turn himself in."

This dude is going down.

[ornotna]

80. About to show this on CNN

Coming up.

[Downtown Hound]

81. Should have grabbed his bike and thrown it over side of the bridge the minute he went after the

little girl.

[MineralMan]

85. Someone knows that asshole.

Any time a photo that clear circulates, someone who knows the person and doesn't like the person will drop a dime. "That SOB owes me $100. Besides, he tried to feel up my wife."

It always happens that way. He's all but caught.
