A video is starting to go viral on social media of BLM protestors in Amherst, NY area.
The video shows a vehicle approach the protest, and protestors begin kicking the vehicle and jumping on the vehicle.
A witness at the protest said the car allegedly hit a protestor that was in the road, although another post on Facebook states the driver of the car yelled obscenities and flipped off protestors. It’s unclear from the video what, if anything, transpired to cause the attack on the vehicle.
As police clear protesters away, a few chased the vehicle where they used a blunt object to smash the windshield of the vehicle.
Protestors were seen marching down Transit in the street and blocking multiple lanes of traffic.
You can see the full video here.
Update: Police say although the driver of the vehicle came close to hitting police, no one was hurt and no injuries were reported by either party. There were also no arrests made.
Photos were sent to us that shows the passenger of the car allegedly flipping off the protestors prior to the incident.
Video by Austin Marrano, a videographer who’s been accurately documenting all angles of the protests in Buffalo, NY.
