Here's 2 different takes on the same event. First, lets read the Kenosha P.D. press release about what happened.
That seems to be pretty reasonable probable cause on the officers to act as they did and suspect what they did.
Now,...let's read what the Seattle Times Antifa apologist rag has been instructed to say by their comrades.

Police, federal agents arrest Seattle-based Riot Kitchen crew that stopped in Kenosha to serve free food
Eight volunteers from Seattle-based Riot Kitchen were ordered out of their vehicles and arrested by law enforcement officials soon after their Wednesday arrival in Kenosha, Wisconsin, where they had planned to provide free food to protesters, according to a board member of the nonprofit group.
A video posted on Twitter purports to show some of what happened during the daylight arrests. The officers arrive in what appear to be unmarked vehicles, and surround a minivan that had just fueled up at a Kenosha gas station and was carrying what board member Jennifer Scheurle said was a group of Riot Kitchen volunteers.
They set off on a cross-country journey planning to provide free food at a march scheduled for Friday in Washington, D.C. But news of the shooting of Kenosha resident Jacob Blake by a police officer caused them to change their plans, and the group’s van and a black-painted bus diverted to Wisconsin.
At least one member of the Riot Kitchen group arrested Wednesday was booked by city police into the Kenosha County Jail on misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct, according to jail records that note a $150 bond. Others in the group who were arrested face similar charges, said Scheurle, who stayed behind in Washington as support for the cross-country caravan and spent Wednesday evening trying to figure out what happened to the volunteers.
“We are a nonprofit and our mission is to feed people for free — protesters and everyone in need,” said Scheurle. “We were from out of town — but that’s not illegal.”

In the video on Twitter, officers move in on the Riot Kitchen van, guns drawn. Someone yells “Get the (expletive) out.” A uniformed law enforcement officer then swings a baton to shatter the glass of the passenger-side front window. The officer reaches inside to open the door, and people exit the van. An officer eventually gets into the vehicle and drives it away.
On Thursday afternoon, Scheurle said four of the Riot Kitchen crew volunteers had been released and four remain in jail.
The Kenosha Police Department tweeted that a citizen tip was received about several suspicious vehicles with out-of-state plates meeting in a remote lot. Police said in the statement: “Acting on this information Kenosha Police Officers located the suspicious vehicles and took up surveillance. Kenosha Police were assisted by the United States Marshals.”
Police say that they made nine arrests for disorderly conduct from three vehicles that included the school bus, the minivan and a bread truck. They say they observed the occupants of the bus and bread truck exit to fill multiple fuel cans.
Scheurle said that any cans filled with fuel would have been for legitimate uses, such as generators used in serving meals.
Police, who said the officers wore appropriate identification, said the minivan attempted to drive away, but that the police ultimately “forced entry” into the vehicle.
Police said the vehicles also contained helmets, gas masks, protective vests, illegal fireworks and suspected controlled substances.
That seems to be pretty reasonable probable cause on the officers to act as they did and suspect what they did.
