A police concussion grenade tore off much of the arm of 21-year-old Jewish activist Sophia Wilansky at the protest against the Dakota Access Pipeline, activists.
“There’s no words to be a parent and look at your kid, look at her arm that’s not there,” said Wilansky’s father, Wayne Wilansky, struggling to speak through his tears in an interview with local Minneapolis television station KMSP. “She’s peacefully trying to get people to not destroy the water supply, and they’re trying to kill her.”
