During the Dakota Access Pipeline protests on November 21, 2016, Deputy Sheriff Adam Dvorak deployed two Stinger Ball grenades toward protesters, including Sophia Wilansky, who were near a burned-out vehicle. The grenades exploded within a few feet of Wilansky, contributing to the escalation of force against demonstrators. This incident was part of a broader pattern of alleged excessive force used by law enforcement during the protests, leading to multiple lawsuits and public outcry.
