Protester who got Smushed by Bobby Wagner Files Police Report (for More Publicity)
Get a load of this:
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) — A protester who ran onto the field during the San Francisco 49ers’ Monday night home game against the Rams has filed a police report after being subdued by Los Angeles linebacker Bobby Wagner.
Santa Clara Police Department Lt. Cuong Phan confirmed to The Associated Press on Wednesday that the department has an active investigation of the incident, which meant he could provide few other details.
…
Wagner flattened the protester who ran across the field and toward the Rams’ sideline while waving a device emitting pink smoke shortly before halftime at Levi’s Stadium. Teammate Takk McKinley also helped as Wagner subdued the protester, who had eluded security during the run across the field, while another protester was caught before getting very far onto the field.
Here’s the video in case you missed it:

I saw the pink smoke and thought this was the world’s worst gender reveal. Apparently they were protesting something.
But anyway, you enter the field and all bets are off. You get pancaked and escorted from the stadium, and that’s where it should end. This police report will get tossed, but the point of filing it was to push out the protest message one more time and get media outlets to share it.
