Man drives car into protesting crowd in Seattle, shoots bystander
09 June, 2020
A guy drove his car right into a crowd of protesters in Seattle on Sunday, then shot and wounded a demonstrator who confronted him as he found a stop, according to police and eyewitness video.
Seattle police said firefighters took the man who was simply shot to a healthcare facility and that he was in stable condition. No-one else was injured, the police said.
The suspect was observed in the video exiting his car as protesters started to surround it. He brandished what appeared to be a gun, dashed through the crowd and turned himself to police.
The incident was in contrast to the mostly calm weekend protests sparked by the death of George Floyd last month while in Minneapolis police custody.
