| Description | Videos from the scene on a street in Chile show John Corbin firing a gun from beside his truck as protesters throw what appear to be rocks and bottles at him.
Protests in Chile have been going on for three weeks, sparked by a subway fare hike but morphing into broader complaints about inequity in the South American county, The New York Times reports. Five people have been killed by police or military during the protests, according to the newspaper.
Corbin is a one-time Libertarian candidate for the U.S. House in South Carolina. He ran for the 4th Congressional District of South Carolina in 2006 while living in Greenville, describing himself as a “pro-life Libertarian,” according to his archived website with the Library of Congress. |
