Seattle PD Trolls Alex Jones: ‘As Far as We Know, That Could Be an Actor’

Friday morning, Alex Jones had an entire thermos of coffee dumped on him by a man with whom he had a verbal confrontation with on the streets of Seattle.

But on Friday afternoon, Jones may have been on the receiving end of an even more scalding burn.

On its official Twitter account, the Seattle police department responded to a query about the incident, and whether they were investigating.

“We haven’t received any official reports,” the police department wrote. “As far as we know that could be an actor playing Alex Jones.”

We haven’t received any official reports. As far as we know that could be an actor playing Alex Jones.

The Tweet was a blatant attempt to troll Jones, as it was reference to comments he made earlier this week about Charlottesville.

“I mean, quite frankly, I’ve been to these events, a lot of the KKK guys with their hats off look like they’re from the cast of Seinfeld,” Jones said. (via Newsweek) He added, “Literally, they’re just Jewish actors. Nothing against Jews in general, but they are leftists Jews that want to create this clash and they go dress up as Nazis.”
