He was charged with felonies.
New York -
A man armed with a flamethrower, smoke grenades, and fireworks (presumably to attack others) was charged
with obstructing an officer and felony bail jumping after police detained him in Green Bay, Saturday night.
The hilarious, but typical part of the story, is that when he was arrested, the soy-sustained
fascist insurrectionist curled up into the fetal position and bawled like a little girl.
WBAY reported:
Matthew Banta, 23, is charged with obstructing an officer and two counts of felony bail jumping.
The criminal complaint says Banta “is known to be a violent Antifa member who incites violence in otherwise relatively
peaceful protests.”
Police say he’s known as “Commander Red.”
Green Bay police say they were called for “a whole bunch of white people with sticks, baseball bats and helmets
headed… towards the police” on Walnut St. near Webster Ave.
“I don’t know who comes to a protest with a baseball bat for anything other than criminal or illegal activity,”
said Green Bay Police Chief Andrew Smith.
A responding officer says he saw four individuals walking towards a protest with baseball bats.
One man was wearing a metal helmet with goggles and military-style gear with multiple pouches,
and was carrying an Antifa flag.
When the officer pulled his squad car in front of the group, they ran away.
The officer caught Banta, who was carrying the flag, and says Banta “dropped into the fetal position
and began crying.”
He accused the officer of lying on him;
the officer replied nobody was on him.
Banta acknowledged he was headed to the Green Bay protest but
denied he was planning to incite a riot.
A Brown County Court Commissioner set a $2,500 cash bond during his initial appearance on Monday 31st.
Three others were caught trying to get into a house on Walnut Street.
The person inside wouldn’t let them in
and told officers they didn’t know who the people were.
The three dropped what was in their hands.
One told an officer they were bringing them to the protest for self-defense.
Banta is accused in Waupaca County of pointing a loaded gun at a police officer and biting
and kicking an officer during a protest earlier this month.
He’s charged there with second-degree recklessly endangering safety and four other charges (see related story).
He posted a $10,000 cash bond.
A condition of his bond was that he can’t have a dangerous weapon, according to the Brown County
district attorney’s office.
“It’s worrisome when people associated with Antifa come here to Green Bay from out of town for the purpose of
protesting here or for the purposes of committing violent acts,” said Chief Smith.
Police arrested 15 individuals total on Saturday after a Black Lives Matter protest took
a turn and police deemed it unlawful.
“An unlawful assembly is three or more people who gather in such a manner where property damage,
or personal injury is likely to occur.
We determined this was happening on Washington Street.
What was happening was a large group of people had blocked traffic on the street had engaged in throwing a bottle
at somebody, were pulling up manhole covers off the street and were blocking traffic,” said Chief Smith.
