But that wasn’t all. The reckless driver then went on swerving his vehicle, in an attempt to fling away one of the protestors, off the car’s hood, as reported by onlookers.

The viral video was shared on Facebook by an activist that goes by the name of Ethan Ketner, who captioned it as ‘Detroit Police Department just ran straight through a bunch of our protestors.’
