'Ambushed' an inappropriate scare word in this headline. Shame on the Washington Post. An ambush implies planning and organization, generally by a group. This was an assault by one lone nut, and he wasn't upset about the vaccine anyway, he had some paranoid fantasy that the troops were kidnapping somebody.

"None of the soldiers was armed, Williams said, which is typical for domestic responses, such as coronavirus-related missions."

What the heck, that's ridiculous!
