Twitter accounts linked to the leftist activist group Antifa rejoiced at the news that a Clark County (WA) Sheriff's deputy—Detective Jeremy Brown—had been shot in the head and killed, Fox reports.

"A @ClarkCoSheriff deputy was shot in the head near Portland (in Vancouver, Wash.) overnight and killed," conservative journalist Andy Ngo, who has been physically assaulted by Antifa, tweeted Saturday along with screenshots of tweets he claimed were linked to the anarchist group.

The accounts posted by Ngo show users with Twitter bios using terminology such as "ACAB", which stands for "all cops are bastards," and responding to the news of the deceased deputy with mocking comments such as, "Cheers, I’ll drink to that."
