Sen. Tim Kaine's son among several arrested after protesters disrupt Trump rally in Minnesota
I'm close to using up all my free visits to the Washington Post.
Sen. Tim Kaine's son among several arrested after protesters disrupt Trump rally in Minnesota
By Derek Hawkins, The Washington Post 3 hrs ago
The youngest son of Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., was among six people arrested over the weekend during a rally for President Donald Trump in Minnesota that turned chaotic when counterprotesters set off fireworks, lit a smoke bomb and sprayed a chemical irritant into the crowd.
Linwood Michael Kaine, 24, was arrested Saturday on suspicion of second-degree riot, a felony, during the "March 4 Trump" rally at the State Capitol in St. Paul, the Pioneer Press reported Tuesday. He was released Tuesday morning without being charged with a crime, though police are still investigating the matter, according to the Pioneer Press.
Four other people at the rally were arrested on suspicion of second-degree riot, and another was brought in for disorderly conduct. They, too, were released without charges.

Linwood Kaine, who goes by the nickname Woody, attended a small liberal arts college about 45 minutes south of St. Paul and is currently a resident of Minneapolis.

His first name, Linwood, is homage to his grandfather, Linwood Holton, first modern era Republican governor of Virginia, elected in 1969.
