Sacramento County Sheriff’s Vehicle Strikes Stephon Clark Protester, Fails to Stop

A police vehicle in Sacramento, California hit one of the protesters who were demonstrating against the police killing of Stephon Clark on Saturday night. Video taken by a local ABC affiliate and a legal observer clearly shows how a Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department vehicle hit the protester and quickly left the scene. Wanda Cleveland, a 61-year-old local activist was taken to the hospital, where she was treated for her injuries and released with bruises on her arm and the back of the head. “He never even stopped. It was a hit and run. If I did that I’d be charged,” Cleveland said at the hospital. “It’s disregard for human life.”
