Just another day on the protest circuit.
A Black Lives Matter supporter faces attempted murder charges after allegedly driving her sedan through a crowd of southern California Trump supporters on Saturday.
Tatiana Turner, 40, of Long Beach, California, plowed her car through the Yorba Linda crowd at around 3 p.m., leaving two demonstrators with non-life threatening injuries, Orange County police said.
The incident occurred after violent clashes between BLM supporters and Trump supporters spurred police to declare an unlawful assembly and order the crowds to disperse.
Counter-protesters crossed six-lane Imperial Highway and confronted the BLM protesters, who were participating in an event called “Caravan for Justice,” authorities said.
“Approximately 30 minutes after the protests began, we began to receive reports of physical altercations occurring between the two protest groups, including at least one individual who was pepper-sprayed by another protestor,” the Orange County Sheriff’s Department said in a statement to ABC News.
One man and one woman were injured in the collision. The woman suffered two broken legs, police told the local ABC affiliate.
Turner, who was arrested on the scene and booked to the county jail, also faces a charge of assault with a deadly weapon.
A second protester, Jason Mancuso, 46, was cuffed for failure to obey the order to disperse, ABC said.
The incident marked the second time a driver struck a southern California protest in two days.
On Thursday night, a BLM protester was struck by a pickup truck during a march in Hollywood and suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
A preliminary police investigation found protesters began beating the vehicle with sticks as the driver attempted to sift through the crowd.
In that incident, the driver was attempting to drive away from the situation when he struck the protester.
That’s a “woman”?
Nothing will come of it. Maybe a couple weeks of probation.
Allegedly....................
Probably claim self defense and the soros affiliated lawyer will plea down to disorderly conduct or something with an assist from the soros paid d.a.
I’m almost surprised they didn’t charge the Trump supporters she hit with striking her car.

The Soros paid lawyers are no doubt working on that angle right now.
Given the jury pool out there it’s likely the best we can hope for.
Like in the UK....the miscreant damaged the officers boot by striking it with his face.
When you find yourself on your back after a quick left jab and a powerful right cross, and her boot is on your neck, let's hope you can cheerfully say "Only joking. Heh heh"
There are so many genders in the accepted spectrum now.
These Antifa/BLM riots have NOTHING TO DO WITH FREE SPEECH.
They have no permits to even walk down the streets.
This is just pure CRIMINAL ACTIVITY ENCOURAGED BY DEMOCRAT GOVERNORS.
And Tatiana wins one of our new bumper stickers,
Psycho On Board!

Very good point there my FRiend. That’s a huge impediment to justice. Well that, and the phalanyx of liberal judges.
Libs always look so happy.
As Tatiana was read the charges, she was heard screaming, “I SHOULDA DONE THIS IN PORTLAND!!!”
Goggles but no mask...and she can vote.
That is some nasty woman. Throw away the keys to her cell.
She is not a supporter. She is clearly a participant. I think she is the leader of the "Caravan for Justice" BLM group that sponsored the event where the attack happened.
