PROVO — Protests against police brutality in Provo took a tense turn Monday night as a white Ford Excursion pushed through a line of protesters blocking traffic at the intersection of North University and Center Street and a gunshot was reported.
Roughly 100 people took to Center Street on Monday protesting police brutality, the latest demonstration in weeks of protests across the Beehive state. However, what demonstrators say was a peaceful protest appeared to turn violent, with protesters claiming multiple cars tried to ram into them and Provo police investigating the gunshot report.
Betsy Croft, one of the protesters, also witnessed the Excursion pushing through protesters and confrontations with other drivers.
“In the last hour there have been three to four cars that have been trying to run into the groups of people that are congregating at the main intersections in Provo,” Croft said. “This is a peaceful protest so that kind of action is unwarranted and clearly an attempt to be violent.”
