The worldwide civil unrest caused by George Floyd’s death — by suffocation, as one officer knelt on his neck for nearly 9 minutes — largely did not slide into violence in Newport Beach, where four demonstrations were planned around the city Wednesday.
A motorist, identified as Newport Beach resident Don Wallace, allegedly sped a white Mini Cooper through a group of protesters near Marina Park, grazing several without injury before being pulled over and arrested on a charge of assault with a deadly weapon. The car’s windshield was shattered when he was arrested, but it was unclear how it was damaged.Several Twitter users posted video of that incident as well, showing marchers screaming, scrambling, dropping signs and chasing the car.
A spokeswoman for the Orange County District Attorney’s Office said Thursday that the case was not with prosecutors yet.
It has been arrested
is this man a POLICE OFFICER
Just print it out and put it on a poster board and just run around with a picture or catalogue of weaponry. For heaven's sakes. I think people are giving the catalogue idea their vote? You mean you cannot run around with a Walmart Catalogue? RandPaul potus kimoggforda
I never knew Newport had a beach with palm trees
If only NewportBeach’s mayor didn’t take to Facebook to cast protestors as outside agitators.

Photo of Long Beach officer standing over blood with his baton spurs internal investigationThe officer, who was not identified in an email sent Thursday by the city manager, has been removed from patrol duties pending an internal investigation, according to the letter. ALL police departments in this nation need to be overhauled. All police officers need to be retrained about racial sensibilities, and all officers with more than 3 civil right violations or police brutality investigations need to be let go! Fire them all. Unprofessional behavior..... maybe showing off what he thinks he can do with the 'public trust' afforded to him..... or even and underlying mental effect from the job taking it's toll. Just hoping for the right people to make that call and fix it.
