Keanu Reeves stops rubber bullets mid-air at LA protests

Actor Keanu Reeves has been praised after miraculously stopping a flurry of rubber bullets from hitting protesters in LA, just by raising his hand.

US president Donald Trump recently deployed the National Guard to tackle crowds protesting the government’s Los Angeles immigration raids, but thankfully The Matrix actor was on hand to protect protesters from the rubber bullets.

“He just lifted up his right hand and all these rubber bullets just stopped mid-air before falling to the ground,” said stunned protester Simon Williams.

“What a guy. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. I always thought that famous Matrix scene was fake, but apparently he can actually do it.

“Honestly, he’s the nicest guy in the world. Not only did he save my face from being permanently disfigured by the rubber bullets, afterwards he took us all out for ice cream and gave every single protester a $10,000 Rolex. We’d only known him for half an hour.

“Apparently he’s also close to resolving the Israel-Gaza situation and he’s set up peace talks between Zelensky and Putin. I even heard Putin on the other end of the phone say, ‘Anything for you Keanu.’

“I wish I could’ve spent more time with him, but he had to rush off and rescue Greta Thunberg.”
