BREAKING: man critically injured at Dallas riots

It appears he attempted to defend a shop with a large sword

Looters ran at him, then he charged rioters

They then beat him with a skateboard and stoned him with medium sized rocks

I called an Ambulance and it’s on the way
Damnit man this is getting really bad out here

Might need to bounce soon

Situation is critically out of control
Full unedited video for editorial requests. Please attribute to Elijah Schaffer of Blaze TV. I cannot confirm he was the store owner, but I pulled out my camera when I saw him appearing to defend a store, then he was rushed, then made the move that might have cost him his life
Some people were concerned

Others laughed at him

And many more continued to loot high end stores around him while he bled out on the assault
I was there capturing this with @realtor_austen
