Louisville Metro police said no charges have been filed against the driver of a car that hit a protester in downtown Louisville Wednesday morning after she was identified.
Multiple videos captured the 46-year-old woman hit a protester with her car and driving off after several people attempted to stop her from continuing on Liberty Street.
A video provided to WHAS11 shows protesters telling a different car to turn around before her car approaches the intersection. Protesters then tell her to turn around, however her car does not move.
Three protesters can be seen gathering at the driver's window, though it is not clear what was said. In an arrest citation, the woman said they reached into her car, scratched her window and assaulted her, pulling out a dreadlock. The video shows the driver back up her car as the altercation takes place.
According to the arrest citation, the driver said she saw one person with a gun and drove forward, stating that "she was in fear for her life."
Louisville Metro police released footage captured on Real Crime Center cameras that shows the moment she drove off as several protesters run toward her car. The driver hits one person and continues down Liberty Street.
Cameras then captured the aftermath of the crash, showing people run down Liberty Street after the car. In a later recording, a different protester runs to the car and appears to point a gun at the driver. She drives away.

Didn’t watch it but no one outside a cop has any business directing traffic. Her fear is justified.
What happened to the laws that were passed saying that protestors could not obstruct traffic and drivers had the right to keep on going?
That is AWWWWEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Out here in California we have illegal aliens standing in our roadways telling us when to stop, when to move, where to go.
Our governor thinks that’s just fine.
So as long as you put on the right color vest, you can lord it over the little people of America no problem. Cops will arrest you if you disagree. But only if you agree to be arrested, which the illegals and protesters simply don’t.
She did the smart thing -- ever hear of Reginald Denny? In a better world she would have made a U and gone for points.
Thats what you say and you never waver.
“Protestor”?
In Kentucky, all it takes to enable use of deadly force is to fear for serious bodily harm. The prosecution will have to be convinced that a reasonable person in her situation would not have feared for their life.
A quick showing of the Reginald Denny beating should make her case.
She was more patient that I would have been..................
this woman was arrested and charged
btw, the top video started playing. you only have to listen to 25 seconds to hear a snowflake be totally outragous. She is so traumatized by life and racism that she needs a therapist. she gets a “trauma response”
Gee, you think the cops will arrest the dirtball who pointed a gun at her?
“she was in fear for her life...”
...and that, ladies and gentlemen, is the CORRECT answer.
That Buick Lesabre looks much better with the hood ornament, optional.
I thought the Washington DC mayor had closed “the zoo”.
That video makes it clear. According to Kentucky law, she did nothing wrong.
I had to take the test to get CC a couple of years ago in Kentucky and they make it very clear that if you fear for serious bodily harm you can use deadly force.
i.e. even if the guy died, there would be no case against her. The video is clear. It could have been Reginald Denny redux.
That was beautiful. Should have backed up for a couple more.
Take another look. The guy with the gun at the end appears to be the same guy with the megaphone who blocked her car and was reaching into her window after she backed up.
She's lucky to be alive.
Those Antifa shoes just went flying as she broke away from them. I don’t blame her.
