...This time it’s an allegation that protesters surrounded Scott Walker’s car outside of a manufacturing plant in Wisconsin in Hudson, Wisconsin and “began beating on the windows and rocking the vehicle” and then a truck drove up to block its exit on Mar 15, 2011. Both Politico and FOX say this occurred not long after Walker announced he was removing collective bargaining rights from public workers through radical austerity legislation.

“As we prepared to leave, the state troopers saw that the protesters had physically blocked the entrance we had used to come onto the property. So they turned the squad car around and headed toward the other exit. We watched in disbelief as the throng of people rushed toward the second exit to block our path,” writes Walker, a potential 2016 presidential candidate.
“As we tried to pull out, they surrounded the car and began beating on the windows and rocking the vehicle. Just as we extricated ourselves from their grip, a truck pulled up and blocked our path, playing a game of chicken with the troopers. They turned the lights and sirens on warning them to get out of the way. Eventually he backed up, and we sped off,” he continued.

This is a lie. ......
