A pickup truck has plowed into pro-choice protesters in Iowa as demonstrations turned violent after the Supreme Court's Roe v Wade ruling.
The black vehicle drove through the group of activists despite them screaming at it to stop and hammering the window in Cedar Rapids.
One appeared to get caught in front of it and narrowly avoided being run over before the driver sped off during the terrifying exchange on Friday night.
It comes as tens of thousands descended on streets across the US amid mixed reactions at the Supreme Court tearing up Roe v Wade and handing the rights to abortions back to states after nearly 50 years.
Furious demonstrators took to the streets in cities such as Washington DC, Atlanta, New York City, and Seattle as they begged the Biden administration to find a way to overrule the decision.
Meanwhile pro-life protesters also amassed nationwide as some broke down in tears as they celebrated the immediate end of abortions in 18 states.
The Supreme Court on Friday struck down the right to abortion in a seismic ruling that shredded five decades of constitutional protections.
The conservative-dominated court overturned the landmark 1973 Roe v Wade decision enshrining a woman's right to an abortion, saying individual states can restrict or ban the procedure themselves.
A witness told DailyMail.com four people were left injured - one hospitalized - after the truck plowed through protesters in Cedar Rapids on Friday night.
He said: 'I hadn't noticed him before. We were crossing an intersection. I'm guessing this gentleman did not agree with what we were doing.

It’s impossible to tell what happened. Witnesses (other protesters) said the women were crossing the street to go get their cars. But we’re they trying to stop traffic mob- style?
The “mob” doesn’t look dangerous.
They’re fierce, they’re feminists, and they’re in your face.
Headline seems distorted.
False Flag. If he wanted to kill he would have plowed through at high speed.
There ya go...the usual liberal s#!t hole cities. Missing on this list is Portland, Frisco, LA, Phoenix, Detroit, Madison...feel free to add to the list.
Crossing or blocking?
Yeah, I thought so, zillennials.
He wuz just funnin’ around!
Austin.
That was the Rodney King riots where Denney was pulled from his truck.
Who would have ever suspected that Mister McGoo’s great grandson was a radical abortion supporter?
“Road Hog!!” and other epithets were heard from the unruly, tri-focal wearing driver.
It’s just free speech.
Never to see the light of day in the MSM.
Ban trucks! Oh wait….dims do want to do that.

Hmmmmmmm . . .
Abortion not mentioned in the Constitution as a Federal prerogative so the Tenth Amendment kicks in as it is reserved to the people or the states.
Who was terrifying whom?
I clearly remember Reginald Denny. When people start wanting
to criticize people who drive through protestors surrounding their car, I bring up what happened to Reginald Denny.
Was he just aborting them?
Did they catch him?
