Also attracting the attention of local police and the FBI, the group declined as a result of deadly shootouts and destructive counterintelligence activities that exacerbated disputes between Panthers and other black militant groups. https://padlet.com/sbohdan613/4schp06wpz5i/wish/222872884 2018-01-19 17:26:01 UTC https://padlet.com/sbohdan613/4schp06wpz5i/wish/222872884
