#oo Two Occupy Oakland protestors are expected to live after being hit by a Mercedes-Benz
automobile driven by an as-yet unnamed driver. Witnesses reported that the car was attempting to get through the crowd of protestors when it first hit a young man, also as yet unnamed, and then, backing up, a young woman. Witnesses also report the driver of the Mercedes appeared to have lost patience and, as one said, “got frustrated and hit the gas.” from thenewcivilrightsmovement
from SFGate “The two people who were hit, a man and a woman, suffered leg and ankle injuries that were not life-threatening, said BART Police Deputy Chief Daniel Hartwig. They were taken to Highland Hospital.”
