Suspect seen exiting vehicle with firearm after driving through baricade near city’s Capitol Hill.
A man has been arrested after he allegedly drove into a crowd of protesters in Seattle, Washington, and shot at least one person.
Footage taken from the scene shows the aftermath of a black car hitting a barricade on East Pine Street and 11th Avenue on Capitol Hill on Sunday, where people had been gathering to protest the death of George Floyd for the past several days.
A man wearing a black hooded top and dark baseball cap gets out the vehicle brandishing a firearm. The suspect then walks into a crowd of people.
A second video posted on Twitter shows a victim, identified only as Daniel, being transported by medical personnel down the street after allegedly being shot in the arm.
Speaking to Seattle photographer Alex Garland, Daniel described how he saw a vehicle going down East Pine Street and then punching the driver in the face after catching up with him.
“My whole thing was to protect those people,” Daniel added.
While posting the video, Garland tweeted: “With the help of other medics I got a tourniquet on his arm.
