Protesters run as police shoot teargas in an effort to disperse demonstrations against the shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin on Aug 25, 2020, with Facebook saying it has removed accounts linked to the violence. SAN FRANCISCO: Facebook on Wednesday removed accounts of a teenager accused of a deadly shooting spree during protests in the US city of Kenosha, along with pages of a local militia.during anti-police protests in the Wisconsin city Tuesday night.
"At this time, we have not found evidence on Facebook that suggests the shooter followed the Kenosha Guard Page or that he was invited on the Event Page they organised," the social network said. The man then walks down the street freely, gun slung across his chest, while protesters scatter and police vehicles drive past him.
Facebook last week said it had removed hundreds of groups tied to the far-right QAnon conspiracy theory and imposed restrictions on nearly 2,000 more as part of a crackdown on stoking violence.
