Authorities are investigating an incident in Los Angeles on Sunday in which a person drove a U-Haul box truck down a street crowded with marchers demonstrating in support of the Iranian people, causing protesters to scramble out of the way.
The U-Haul truck, with a window and side mirrors shattered, was stopped several blocks away and surrounded by police cars. Helicopter footage from the Los Angeles news outlet KABC showed officers keeping the crowd at bay as demonstrators swarmed the truck, throwing punches at the driver and thrusting flagpoles through the driver’s side window.
