Person fleeing [fascist paramilitary] in Florida fatally struck by vehicle, officials say

A person who ran away from federal immigration agents in St. Augustine, Florida, early Tuesday was struck and killed by a tractor trailer, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

The incident occurred around 6:40 a.m. during an encounter with Homeland Security Investigations and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, the highway patrol said in a statement.

Four occupants of a vehicle ran away and one ran across State Road 16 and “into the path of the tractor trailer,” Sgt. Dylan Bryan told CNN.

While the driver stopped and tried to render aid, the person died at the scene, Bryan said.

The Associated Press reported the person is a man.

His immigration status and nationality are unknown, and the reason for the encounter with federal agents is not yet clear.

Person running in fear for their life, from Brown Shirts, is fatality struck by vehicle.

I really should write a bot at this point to just fix these passive language titles anytime the government commits a war crime or murders innocent people. It's getting exhausting.

Run Down By State-Sanctioned Thugs is what the title should say.

He was hit by a truck because he ran onto a highway. ICE was not driving the truck.

I think we are going to start hitting a couple deaths a day. MAGAts getting more of what they voted for.

They're happy to see this, BTW. They want genocide and they're getting genocide.

All these polls showing Trump under water on immigration don't reflect how your average GOP voter feels. They're still as gun-ho for Trump now as they were when he won in 2016.

Wait until our strategic reserves are empty and the prices of everything skyrockets while cars can't get refueled. They'll still be just as supportive. If anything, they'll blame it all on the comparatively small amount Biden released years ago.

Until the next white person is killed, then things will only slightly change.

It won't until it's a white celebrity the MAGAts care about
