2. Good that they got him

3. His x-wife was credited with ID'ing him, former policeman, not from Minneapolis

4. I read the whole story 3 times and nowhere does it ID the man's name.

What a poor piece of journalism.

6. Posted this to affirm umbrella man is a white supremacist EOM

7. Yes, that's the main thrust of the story but why leave out the white...

supremacist thug's name? On most negative stories about black people and other POCs, their name is blared in the first couple of paragraphs.

What's the point of hyping a story saying the thug had been IDed without IDing him in the story?

Guess that's white supremacist privilege.

5. Other articles from July name Umbrella Man as Mitchell Carlson

Now, in a search warrant affidavit first reported by The Minneapolis Star-Tribune, police say they have received a tip that the man is Mitchell Carlson, “a full‐fledged member of the Hell’s Angels” and “a known associate of the Aryan Cowboys. The Aryan Cowboys are a known prison gang out of Minnesota and Kentucky.”

I haven't seen anything since, so I don't know whether this has changed or not.
