WATCH: Woman thinks it’s a good idea to grab a flashbang and try to throw it back, but she finds out in a hurry
An anti-ICE agitator in Minneapolis has tried to grab a flashbang and throw it back at federal officers.
It didn’t work out so well.
The unidentified woman actually fell to the ground after tossing the munition, apparently in pain from the heat of the item.

One description explained the “terrorist” won the “Darwin Award” of the day for her actions during an “insurrection.”
Another claimed she was hit by a “less-than-lethal” munition.

“We can all see what happened,” explained a commentary at Twitchy.
One commenter on the site said, “Flashbangs 1) are hot and 2) go bang. Don’t pick them up.”
The extent of the woman’s injuries were not immediately clear.
