A former Delaware councilman was arrested Saturday after police said he struck an organizer of a gay pride parade in Dover with his truck. Reuben Salters, 90, was charged with third-degree vehicular assault and related offenses and released on his own recognizance, Dover Police Cpl. Salters was driving a Ford Ranger around 8:15 a.m. when he approached Forrest and West Streets, which were blocked off for the Delaware Pride Festival parade. The parade's 43-year-old organizer approached Salters and advised him that he couldn't pass through, Hoffman said. “It’s time to pass the torch to a new generation,” he told the Dover Post at the time.
