A car drove onto a closed freeway early Saturday and struck two people in a crowd protesting against police brutality, killing one and critically injuring the other, authorities said.
Summer Taylor, 24, of Seattle died in the evening at Harborview Medical Center, spokesperson Susan Gregg said.

Dawit Kelete of Seattle drove the car around vehicles that were blocking I-5 and sped into the crowd about 1:40 a.m., according to a police report released by the Washington State Patrol. Video taken at the scene by protesters showed people shouting Car! Car! before fleeing the roadway.
Love is in serious condition in the intensive care unit, Harborview, Gregg said.
Love was filming the protest in a nearly two-hour-long Facebook livestream captioned Black Femme March takes I-5 when the video ended abruptly; with about 15 seconds left, shouts of Car! can be heard as the camera starts to shake before screeching tires and the sound of impact are heard.

The driver, who was alone, fled the scene after hitting the protesters, Trooper Chase Van Cleave told The Associated Press. One of the other protesters got in a car and chased the driver for about a mile. He was able to stop him by pulling his car in front of the Jaguar, Van Cleave said.
Troopers arrived, and the driver was put in custody, Washington State Patrol Capt. Ron Mead said.
Kelete was described by offices as reserved and sullen when he was arrested, according to court documents. He also asked if the pedestrians were OK, the documents say.

They are NOT children.
Painting adult victims as children is liberal tactics.
Take it elsewhere.
Don’t play in the street.
These children..
These children...
These children....
Give it up!
That attitude is exactly why we are where we are as a society.
By the ages of these two females entire generations of Americans were working productively, raising families and being good, LAW ABIDING citizens.
Some waded ashore at Utah and Omaha beaches. Others were at places like Guadalcanal, Midway, Iwo Jima. Many lied about their ages to serve.
They saved us from the German National Socialists and the Japanese Imperialists.
Their sweethearts and wives manned the production lines that built the weapons of war.
That generation and another fought the North Koreans and Chinese and saved half the Korean peninsula from communism.
That generation and the next defeated the Viet Cong and NVA only to have spineless politicians give their victory away.
They then went on to win the cold war and consign the Soviet Union to the ash heap of history.
The generation represented by these two females is the most petted, pampered, participation trophy possessing group in the history of the Republic. So petted and pampered they can’t use their God given brains to see through the absolute BS their teachers shove at them. So petted and pampered they have no concept of common sense, they just do what makes them feel good.
Look at their tats.
The money those two wastes of skin spent following the herd at the tattoo parlor would feed a family for a year in many parts of the world.
Calling them children does no good.
Call them what they are useful idiots, Pavlovs dogs barking at their masters command.
But of course I'm thinking of the way things should be in a sane world.
First saw it as a pendant, not a tattoo, tattoos weren’t a such thing in the mid 70s. Ended up working with the couple wearing the necklaces at two different companies.
California is a LONG ways from where you are...
...always has been!
hopefully always will be.
hopefully always will be.
Had a roommate from his neck of the woods way back when. Good guy.
Run toward an oncoming car at highway speed...the car always wins.
That didn't take long did it.
Maybe they knew that Jaguar driver was a special race person these days.
From your keyboard to God’s eyes!
(OTOH, I’d see nothing wrong with California returning to normalcy!)
Okay, if we were following their rules, it’s time to go burn down NAACP, the DNC headquarters, and the ACLU, then blame some other leftist group for their black privilege that caused it.
It is what we all pray for.
I’d call walking on a freeway in the middle of the night wearing black is a suicide.
culling the lefturd loon herd
No shock there. With a haircut like that, a real woman might as well be a dude. Why a woman would choose to uglify herself with tats, facial piercings and side shaves is beyond my comprehension.
suicide by stupidity
