Suspect in Portland fatal shooting has been killed: reports

“They’re out hunting me,” Michael Reinoehl reportedly told an interviewer earlier

An Antifa sympathizer who was said to be a suspect in the fatal shooting of a Patriot Prayer supporter in Portland, Ore., last month was reportedly killed Thursday night as authorities moved in to arrest him.

Michael Forest Reinoehl, 48, died in Lacey, Wash., outside Seattle, during an operation by a federal fugitive task force, The New York Times reported.

Reinoehl's death was also confirmed by a senior Justice Department official, according to The Associated Press. The suspect was shot by law enforcement after drawing a gun on officers, the AP report said.

No trial, no definite resolution as to what happened. The left are now free to claim the Patriot Prayer guys were threatening violence and the Antifa guy was acting in self defense.

This POS has gone from cowardly assassin to leftist martyr. Probably exactly what he wanted. I hope it hurt alot.

I can live with that.  :cool:

The fact that this was a very neat resolution to a case that, if it had been tried in Multnomah County, could well have had an outcome cheating Aaron Danielson, his family, and his friends of the justice they deserved.

 Details of ‘100% Antifa’ Portland Shooter’s Death Emerge, Possible Large Shoot-Out

Posted at 8:30 am on September 04, 2020 by Bonchie

Last night, Michael Forest Reinoehl was shot and killed by federal authorities after evading capture for nearly a week. He is the man who allegedly murdered a Trump supporter in cold-blood while “protesting” in Portland, OR. The original chilling video shows Reinoehl responding to someone saying “we’ve got one over here” by pulling a gun and executing a man in the street at near point blank range.

At first, misinformation spread, claiming the police killed Reinoehl in revenge. That was, of course, nonsense.

In reality, U.S. Marshals moved in to make the arrest after Portland PD and state agencies failed to apprehend him. That ended badly for Reinoehl, who reported pulled a gun and reportedly had a fairly large shoot-out with the authorities.

I’ll note that it’s highly unlikely Reinoehl got off “40-50” rounds before police returned fire, so this is more likely a case where both sides were firing at each other for some period. In the end, it was expected that the suspect wouldn’t go peacefully. He’s already admitted to the murder during a lionizing interview with VICE News (I struggle to include that second word in their title). There was clearly no case for self-defense, as the victim wasn’t even armed. Reinoehl simply executed a man.

They Got Him: Antifa Punk Shot and Killed By Federal Agents After He Reportedly Pulled a Gun

Quote
    The man, Michael Reinoehl, 48, was killed as a federal task force attempted to apprehend him in Lacey, Washington, the official said. Reinoehl was the prime suspect in the killing of 39-year-old Aaron “Jay” Danielson, who was shot in the chest Saturday night, the official said.

    Federal agents from the FBI and the U.S. Marshals Service had located Reinoehl on Thursday after a warrant was issued for his arrest. During the encounter, Reinoehl was shot by a law enforcement officer who was working on the federal task force, the official said.

    The official said Reinoehl had pulled a gun during the encounter and was shot by law enforcement. The official could not discuss the matter publicly and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.

    The U.S. Marshals Service fugitive task forces, comprised of deputy marshals, other federal agents and local law enforcement officers from a variety of agencies, are responsible for apprehending violent felons and other wanted suspects

    Reinoehl had described himself in a social media post as “100% ANTIFA,” suggested the tactics of counter-protesters amounted to “warfare,” and had been shot at one protest and cited for having a gun at another.

Vice was playing The Big Lebowski prior to the interview, but I refused to watch the POS be interviewed afterwards because it was clear from the promos the interview was a whitewash of the diseased punk.

Didn't know that much about Vice as a network before but I know enough now to avoid it from now on.

The Feds should bill the State of Oregon and Clackamas County for the millions of $$ in court costs and prison upkeep they saved the state and county.

... U.S. Marshals moved in to make the arrest after Portland PD and state agencies failed to apprehend him. ...

So PPB and state agencies, who know the area, "couldn't" find him, but Federal marshals did? Color me skeptical of Oregon having done hindrance-free due diligence.

EXCLUSIVE: 'I wouldn't say this counts as bad news.' Sister of Portland antifa gunman reacts to his death after he was shot dead by US Marshals, as she voices concern he'll become a martyr and an excuse for more violence and protests

    Antifa protester Michael Reinoehl was shot dead by US Marshals on Thursday night in Lacey, Washington
    Reinoehl was 'under investigation' for the death of Patriot Prayer member Aaron 'Jay' Danielson during a protest last Saturday in Portland
    Reinoehl's sister April spoke exclusively with DailyMail.com after his death
    She said: 'I wouldn't say at this point that this counts as bad news. It's just more news'
    April added: 'Honestly I didn't expect it to be the police... I was expecting the angry population of people who were out for blood'
    The bereaved sister said she was worried her brother would become a martyr and an excuse for more violence
    April said the situation left her feeling hopeless for the country, and worried for her brother's two children, an 18-year-old son and 11-year-old daughter
    Reinoehl came close to admitting the killing in an interview with Vice News which was broadcast around the same time federal agents closed in on him
    The 48-year-old claimed he acted in self defense, believing he and a friend were about to be stabbed

The sister of Portland antifa protester wanted for 'shooting dead' a Patriot Prayer member last week, responded when informed of her brother's death: 'I wouldn't say at this point that this counts as bad news.'

April Reinoehl spoke exclusively with DailyMail.com hours after brother Michael Reinoehl's death at the hands of a federal fugitive task force on Thursday night.  ...

The bereaved sister said she was worried her brother would become a martyr and an excuse for more violence after the reported police killing.

'Now we've got two martyrs. That's how the two opposing sides are going to want to spin it,' she said.

'Hatred begets hatred. Anybody who saw him, in their eyes, standing up for the plight of the black people, being killed by a police officer, this is going to validate their feelings in their minds of all the anger that they have – whether or not it's correct or righteous.' ...  https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8697969/Sister-Portland-antifa-gunman-reacts-death-shot-dead-Marshals.html (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8697969/Sister-Portland-antifa-gunman-reacts-death-shot-dead-Marshals.html)

From the OP article:

Quote
April told DailyMai.com she believed her brother would have tried to fight with federal officers sent to catch him fleeing to the small town 120 miles north of Portland.

'I wouldn't be surprised if he reacted badly to a situation just like he reacted badly to the situation at the riots,' April said.

'He always acted impulsively letting the worst emotions guide his actions, and then he'd try to rationalize afterwards.

'So I'm not surprised he got himself killed. I'm surprised a police officer did it.'

Sounds like she's realistic about her brother but believes the Prog narrative that the Patriot Prayer people are violent the way the Antifoids are.

Michael Forest Reinoehl, a self-described anti-fascist who provided security for Portland racial justice protests, appears to have targeted a participant in a pro-Trump rally, emerging from an alcove of a parking garage before firing two gunshots, one that hit the man’s bear spray can and the other that proved fatal, according to a police affidavit unsealed Friday.

Police found a single Winchester .380-caliber bullet casing on the street, a metal canister of “Bear Attack Detector” that had a “large defect” in it and a collapsible metal baton just north of Aaron “Jay” Danielson’s body, a detective said in the affidavit. ...

Reinoehl is seen hiding in an alcove of the garage and reaching into a pouch or waistband as Danielson and a friend, Chandler Pappas, walk south on Third Avenue.

Homicide Detective Rico Beniga wrote that Reinoehl “conceals himself, waits and watches” as Danielson and Pappas pass him.

After the two men go by, Reinoehl followed them, walking west across the street moments before the gunshots were fired, police said.  ...

Thanks, @mountaineer !

I was confused because the shooter said that the shooting was self-defense because he was afraid Danielson was going to attack he AND his friend.

Wow. They had better make some more arrests.

Now the reaction of Danielson's friend makes sense - he knew who those 'medics' were as did the guy haranguing the cameraman to hand over his footage, as well. He knew what the cameraman was there for.

Not only old enough to know better, but this nitwit was the father of young children. I read that he was a "former professional snowboarder." No mention of a trust fund, though. Maybe he just collected welfare.

I don't know for sure, but I seriously doubt anyone becomes a "professional" snowboarder without his family having LOTS of $$$.

My only point of reference being my youngest son's one time asperation to be a "professional" barefoot water skier.  (About $20,000 worth of orthopedic surgery broke him of that.)
