Police car drives through Black Lives Matter protesters in Detroit

A police car was caught on camera driving into protesters following a Black Lives Matter demonstration in Detroit, with at least four people reportedly injured.

One of the protesters posted a clip on Facebook which shows the 4×4 vehicle driving through protesters who appear to have blocked its way, Mirror reported.

According to him, up to a dozen people, including himself were struck by the “reckless driver”, while one person was “trapped on the hood” before being “tossed” onto the road.

The video shows some at the scene on Sunday evening holding protest signs and banners while many are chanting.

With several people clambering onto the bonnet of the car it suddenly jolts forwards and some people fall backwards. It then picks up speed and appears to swerve as one remaining person still clinging on is thrown onto the road.

The video ends with people screaming and many in the crowd sprinting after the police car.
