A Minneapolis man who attempted to run over a firefighter with his vehicle was released from custody Monday with zero bail required by Hennepin County Judge Regina Chu.
According to a criminal complaint, 52-year-old Shawn Coates was following a woman in his pickup truck when she approached a Minneapolis fire station for help. One of the firefighters on duty directed the woman to “go into the fire station for safety” and told Coates to “move on.” https://alphanews.org/man-who-tried-to-run-over-firefighter-released-on-zero-bail-by-judge-chu/
Coates didn’t take this well. He called the firefighter a “motherf–,” began spinning his tires, and eventually tried to run over the firefighter with his truck.
Coincidently, Judge Chu presided over the Kim Potter trial of a few weeks ago. Police woman, Potter, was found guilty of manslaughter by mistakenly shoot a perp with her piston instead of a stun gun.
