A Minnesota man has been sentenced to four years in prison
helping torch a Minneapolis police station in the aftermath of
George Floyd’s death, prosecutors said.
Dylan Shakespeare Robinson, 23, of Brainerd, was also ordered to
pay $12 million in restitution for damage to Minneapolis’ third
police precinct during rioting on May 28, 2020, the US
Attorney’s Office for the District of Minnesota said Wednesday.
Robinson, who pleaded guilty in December to one count of
conspiracy to commit arson, was caught on video throwing a
Molotov cocktail, according to a criminal complaint unsealed in
Colorado, where he fled prior to being arrested.
He was also seen lighting a second Molotov cocktail for another
rioter, who tossed the firebomb toward the police station,
prosecutors said.
“Mr. Robinson chose to depart from lawful protest and instead
engaged in violence and destruction,” Acting US Attorney Anders
Folk said. “The arson at the Minneapolis Police Department’s
Third Precinct put lives at risk and contributed to widespread
lawlessness in Minneapolis.”
Robinson also boasted about his actions on his Snapchat account,
saying “These guys have never made a Molotov … Rookies,”
according to the criminal complaint.
Three other co-conspirators in the fire, which forced cops to
flee the building, have all pleaded guilty to one count each of
conspiracy to commit arson.
The defendants, Bryce Michael Williams, 27; Davon De-Andre
Turner, 25; and Branden Michael Wolfe, 23, are currently
awaiting sentencing.
Court documents show hundreds of protesters descended upon the
police precinct following the death of Floyd, a black man who
was handcuffed as Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin knelt
on his neck for more than nine minutes. The caught-on-camera
sparked fervent protests against police brutality locally and
across the nation, including some that turned violent.
Chauvin, who was fired by the department along with three other
cops charged in Floyd’s death, was convicted last week of all
three murder and manslaughter counts he faced. He faces up to 40
years in prison.
