During the protest a vehicle pulled up to the intersection and was immediately swarmed by the protesters.
The protesters jumped on the hood of the car and the driver sped away.

Video of the incident was later released. You can see the protest mob beating on the man’s car.
The driver as arrested and booked on several charges. None of the protesters were arrested.
The driver was a supporter of Democrat mayor Lyda Krewson.
On Thursday St. Louis City Mayor defended the protesters blocking the street.
Driving into people is totally wrong. People have a right to protest, he should have used common sense and turned around.

Mayor Krewson: I don’t know person in the photo- I take pics w/ a lot of people- Police are applying for felony charges- that’s the right call! Driving into people is totally wrong. People have a right to protest, he should have used common sense and turned around.
Ever since Michael Brown was shot in Ferguson far left protesters believe they have the right to shut down traffic in the city and on the interstate on a whim.
St. Louis citizens are getting tired of the juveniles and their selfishness.
The mayor got hammered by law-abiding citizens on Twitter for defending the protest mob.
Wow…you really don't get how fed up St Louis is of the coddling of these protesters…Their rights do not supercede my right

Come on Mayor. It's not a peaceful protest if they're in the street blocking traffic. Breaking the law goes both ways. Lead not cave!

Are you kidding me. What is the permit number for the street shut down for protest !!

So now you shouldn't drive on the streets of St. Louis? And you're the Mayor? How about you advocating for the rule of law?

C'mon folks don't surround someones car and hit it with rocks and bottles! This might make someone FEAR FOR THEIR LIFE!

C'mon Mayor! How bout you actually let the police force do their job and arrest anyone blocking a street? #protestlivesscatter

Americans are getting tired of the lawlessness promoted by the Democrat Party.
