Rioters in Salt Lake City, Utah, beat a man, flipped his car, and lit it on fire after he confronted them with a bow and arrow during riots on Saturday evening.
Brandon McCormick, an ex-felon who said he chanted “all lives matter” in Salt Lake City, can be seen on video footage posted online getting beaten up and having his car destroyed after he shot his bow and arrow at rioters.
“My car got totaled … my phone, everything. I lost everything,” McCormick told FOX 13 News.

McCormick said he arrived at the riot to “back up the law enforcement” and protect them.
“I know some cops are bad. I know some people of all races are bad,” McCormick told local media.
