A Protester Threw a Snowball. Federal Agents Responded With Tear Gas and Pepper Balls. excerpt: A crew from FRONTLINE and ProPublica was filming, too. The man being questioned, a U.S. citizen named Christian Molina, told ProPublica reporter A.C. Thompson that federal agents had followed him and rammed his car: “They looked at me and they decided to pull me over for no reason,” Molina said. What happened next can be seen in footage from FRONTLINE and ProPublica’s new documentary “Caught in the Crackdown.”  Someone threw a snowball in the direction of the agents — and one of them responded by tossing a tear gas canister into the crowd.  “You’re tear-gassing a fucking neighborhood,” a protester yelled. “People live here.” As the toxic haze rose, an agent pepper-sprayed protesters and a news photographer at close range. Another agent fired pepper balls into the crowd, hitting Thompson three times. One shot struck him above the right eye. Federal use of force guidelines generally instruct agents not to target people’s heads and faces with these weapons. Then, as the agents drove away, one of them shot pepper spray from a car window, hitting others on the film team, including FRONTLINE’s director Gabrielle Schonder and director of photography Tim Grucza, who was sprayed in the face.
