One person injured after man drives car into George Floyd rally in Seattle, opens fire – report

A man has been arrested after driving a car into a police barricade at a protest against police brutality in Seattle’s Capitol Hill area. The man reportedly fired his gun, injuring one person, before he fled the scene.

Video of the incident shows the man driving into a barricade. Protesters first rush toward his car and begin hitting it, only scattering after the man appears to fire his gun out the window. He then exits the vehicle with gun drawn as protesters scatter. The man was apprehended shortly thereafter by police.
