People with guns are checking the identification of individuals trying to enter an area in Seattle run by far-left activists and groups such as Antifa, the Seattle Police Department stated.

“We have been hearing from community members that they have been subjected to barricades set up by the protesters, with some armed individuals running them as checkpoints into the neighborhood,” Assistant Chief Deanna Nollette told reporters on June 10.
