He was an old man - 75 years old!
Criminal defendant Trump attracts old, violent, poorly educated people.
CBS News reported it was told by law enforcement that the man had engaged FBI agents in a gunfight when they attempted to serve a warrant.
A neighbor told the Deseret News that he witnessed several unmarked vehicles block the street early on Wednesday and heard agents shout: “Craig Robertson, please come out with your hands up” before flash grenades were heard.
The neighbor, Cooper Robinson, said he then heard “shouting and some yelling, I couldn’t pick out what they were saying. But at some point I did hear five shots fired.”
Nyla Rollins, another neighbor, estimated that
50 agents were involved. “They called for my neighbor … to come out. And he’s like, ‘I’m not coming out [expletive].’ And then I didn’t hear anything after that,” Rollins told the News.
Questions are being asked if the FBI’s response was unduly harsh. “The FBI just came and shot an elderly man from my ward,” Travis Clark told the paper. “You know, a guy who’s nearly 80 years old, 300 pounds and can barely get around with a cane.”
Despite his anti-government rhetoric, Robertson was described as the “teddy bear” in the church congregation
who was so immobilized that he’d drive 200 yards to church.Granuiad.
