This Is Antifa: Parents Escort Antifa Riot Inciter To Police (VIDEO)
Jordan Bartels was escorted to police by his parents after a warrant was issued for his arrest for breaking police car windows, “against the wishes of peaceful protesters who tried to stop him.” His actions led to an increase in violence and after authorities searched his home they found “2 firearms, books, gloves, cans of spray paint, indica, and a sweatshirt with white writing on the front was found on top of the dryer in the laundry room,” according to WPXI.
Bartels is now being charged with institutional vandalism, rioting, and reckless endangerment.

Police got tipped off to Bartels after they got a call from someone who identified him from social media and watching the protest unfold on the news.

Yup Bartels couldn’t have been acting alone and hopefully, the FBI gets more intel on him so they can round up his friends.
