Antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters attacked an Amazon store in Seattle on Sunday. Video posted by conservative activist and citizen reporter Katie Daviscourt shows an Antifa and BLM mob smashing windows and spray painting the store’s front window and wall. The video is cut short as an Antifa goon orders the filming to stop. Other stores and the Seattle Police West Precinct were attacked by the rioters, resulting in a wounded officer being taken to the hospital. A Seattle TV news reporter and his camera man were also attacked by the “peaceful protesters.” (Updates at end: small arson fires were set at a Starbucks and the police East Precinct.)
Daviscourt also reported seeing armed Antifa and BLM in cars.

This video just sent to me shows protesters at the West Precinct. Fireworks are heard at first and then a few seconds later, it appears that some type of crowd control devices are used by @SeattlePD. At the end, you can see officers moving in on someone #KOMONews pic.twitter.com/2rpI21zPpZ
