IOWA CITY, Iowa — A car drove through a crowd of protesters in Iowa City Friday night, hitting two people.
No one was seriously injured, the Daily Iowan reported.
“When he went through the crowd I was shocked. I couldn’t believe someone would do that. It seemed like a deliberate attack,” Erik Fisher, who took video of one of the incidents, told KWWL.
