Reno police are investigating reports of a pickup truck plowing into a group of Native American rights demonstrators after dramatic video emerged showing the vehicle’s occupants arguing with activists, revving the engine and then speeding into the crowd. A Facebook Live video of the protest shows a pickup truck revving its engine in front of the crowd. Several protesters confronted the driver and the passenger before the truck drives through the crowd. Footage obtained by the Associated Press shows a group of protesters surrounding the truck, including a person holding a baby. One man shouted “Hey, hey, hey” as the driver sped ahead, causing many in the crowd to scream as some appear to be knocked over.
