    Media reports on the disturbances have tied the toy-throwings to a group involved in a related cryptocurrency meme coin.

    There was a time when this would have surprised me. Not anymore

      Neat, sounds to me like this was a crime for the benefit of a gang and everyone even tangentially involved should have all their assets seized and get imprisoned for things members of their group did whether they were directly involved or not

        Yes, a crypto group has claimed credit for the fad trying to promote a meme coin. Talk about absolute dirt bags.
