The way the Times wrote this differs from the account of the driver, Hal Netcalf. I heard him interviewed on the radio this morning, and he said his car was surrounded by protestors, people were pounding on his car, ripped one of his windshielf wipers off, and police watched nearby but did nothing. So he merely tried to move closer to the police. He was actually put in a jail cell with other protestors who were arrested!!! At the end, he was not charged and was released.

Hmm...

This is a weird story.

Biased reporting? I think so.

We're losing this state & Californians seem OK with that.

...he was not charged and was released.

A purely trivial fact. /sarcasm

Event turns hostile
Anti-illegal immigration activists, protesters clash and a man is arrested after two people are hit by a van.

By MARTIN WISCKOL
The Orange County Register

GARDEN GROVE – An event honoring an anti-illegal immigrant leader Wednesday night was marred by altercations between anti-immigration activists and protesters, resulting in an arrest when two demonstrators were hit by a slow-moving van.

The driver was Hal Netkin of Van Nuys, said Barbara Coe, chairwoman of the California Coalition for Immigration Reform.

Protesters were blocking a driveway when Netkin tried to drive through and knocked two demonstrators to the ground, Deputy Police Chief K.J. Raney said.
