“A man was arrested during protests Wednesday evening in the Central West
End after he drove through the crowd and later waved a gun at protesters.
The incident happened during a day of demonstrations that brought protesters
to several sites in and around St. Louis,” reports stltoday.com.
Protesters blocked an intersection in the popular central west end area of
St. Louis, surrounding a minivan containing a single white male, and jumped
on the hood. The driver took evasive action, spilling the hood-jumper into
the street. He drew a firearm while apparently calling police . . .
One of the protesters claimed that the man struck one of the people who were
blocking the street, and also called the police. There were no reports of
an ambulance called to the area.
Defending driver on the phone with defensive firearm ready. St. Louis Post-
Dispatch reporter David Carson was on the scene and took these photos and
posted them on Twitter. According to the stltoday.com article, the
protestors had broken the rear window of the van. Notice the cell phone,
finger off the trigger, pistol pointed in a safe direction. He appears to
know what he is doing.
Something like this was bound to happen. Only days earlier, people in South
St. Louis had banged on a car, and attacked the driver of the car with
hammers, killing him. And protestors have been allowed to block traffic
without threat of arrest in various parts of the city, increasing the
likelihood of confrontations with motorists. |
