Video of driver running over protestor in Minneapolis
I've seen posts that it was supposedly a cop car and the guy was responding to threats against him. None of that is true. The video makes that very clear.
Video is here: http://www.startribune.com/local/minneapolis/283973831.html
The car is a Subaru, not a cop car. The driver already had three DUIs, as this article explains. He was not attacked by protestors until AFTER he ran over the girl, age 16, and tried to flee the scene.

There is no cause for disinformation when the incident is available for all to see.
