Police hunt for anti-vaxxer after VIDEO captures Covid test site raid
Police investigating a demonstration at a Covid-19 test-and-trace facility in south-east England have published an image of a woman who allegedly stole and binned a box of test kits.
On Wednesday afternoon, a group of Covid anti-vaccine protesters stormed the site in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire. Videos filmed and posted on social media by onlookers captured the group shouting at the center’s staff and attendees, with some of the workers appearing to flee from the demonstrators.
Footage of the incident shared online also showed one female activist seizing a box of testing supplies from inside the center and dumping its contents into an industrial bin, cheered on by other protesters.
