A CNN reporter has been arrested live on air while covering the Minneapolis protests

A third night of racially charged arson, looting and vandalism has gripped the city, following the death of an unarmed black man when a white police officer knelt on his neck as he lay on the ground after being arrested.

Earlier today, CNN reporter Omar Jiminez was arrested live on air while covering the protests. He and three camera crew members were led away in handcuffs."We can move back to where you like", he told the officers, who were wearing riot gear. Mr Jiminez then explained that he and his crew were members of the press and said: "We're getting out of your way".

If you know anything about CNN this was probably staged....

Those who stir the pot should be made to lick the spoon .

CNN Reporter gets arrested is so Trumps fault seriously serial

Nazi Germany reappearing.

They are beyond fucked.

The reporter was told to leave the area and didn’t and thus arrested . Does CNN have special privileges. Any RTE reporters in that shit storm . The anwer is no

Arresting reporters now 😂😂 realDonaldTrump is not making America great anymore MAGA he's making America North Korea now.

Why again RTE fake it, the Cops we're arresting a guy and they were all over the cops. Told to back off (go away) refused to move ergo Attested.. Twitter needs to start tagging RTE with Fact Check notices

These riots were a weekly thing during Obama’s last term. And the assignations of police officers. The media didn’t blame Barry. Minnesota is a Democrat run town. How is this Trumps fault

This is horrific 😢

America is broken,I wouldn't want to live there.

jackietvpsychic Where the crew black as well or just the reporter . Why because I'f they are not why report it as black CNN reporter arrested fanning the flames getting there moneys by using they're footage .if this is case fucking disgusting behaviour detracting from the real issue racists

A black man is murdered by police in broad daylight, no one has been taken to court! A journalist doing his job trying to report events is arrested for, in all probability, having black skin. Serious human rights violations here, this is most definitely not the land of the free!

America is permanently divided and is falling apart at the seams trump and his puppet master putin have played a blinder.

Beggars belief.....the US is devouring itself from the inside out with that f**cking narcissistic muppet in the White House

America is no longer a democracy

Off the wall. It’s breathtaking. America is falling to shreds

Sticking it to the fake news media whenever they get a chance.

RTE, you just repeat what CNN tells you to, go back to your haybarn

America, the land of the free!

It was polite respectful reporting. He was literally arrested for being a black reporter. Cameras rolled as the police couldn’t figure out how to turn them off. Trump Police State. This should be a glimpse into what will happen when Trump loses in November.

That presenter is a complete retard so good

Minneapolis police doing a fine job once again!

Amazed at people liking tweet. Fascist and racist.

Not a massive CNN fan but coverage I seen, CNN reporter repeatedly ask cops where should they move to, seemed to be very compliant. Not just reporter also camera man and producer. Home of the free?

Trump ‘MAKING AMERICA HATE AGAIN’ GeorgeFloydWasMurdered fascism journalismisnotacrime RT

Identity politics is destroying the US brick by brick. It should be seen for what it is, race baiting.

He was arrested, as far as I can tell, for being black and being a journalist. murka The look of abject fear in his eyes is haunting, as is the camera still broadcasting on the ground.

You can get killed, just for living.

Guilty of being black in America. Unbelievable

Good

Police building set on fire during Minneapolis unrestPresident Donald Trump said he will send in the National Guard and 'get the job done right' if the mayor fails to bring Minneapolis under control. 'Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts,' he tweeted. He stole that saying from someone equally awful as him. WHEN THE LOOTING STARTS THE SHOOTING STARTS LETS GET IT DONNY BOY
