    Here is the more complete description from the police scanner: 3xx 15th Ave SE Suspect: BM, 16, green sweatshirt, black Adidas pants. 01:39AM. Although maybe this is a different incident, so hard to keep them all straight. Please white people, stop making black people attack you because of your privilege and structural racism and micro aggressions!
