The Seattle Bike Brigade, a group of cyclists who have provide security for protesters amid local demonstrations, had blocked off an alleyway near 9th Avenue and Virginia Street.
The aim was to protect mostly teenage protesters participating in a march for racial justice last Wednesday, June 10, in downtown.
A white man, driving a black Honda Civic, reportedly demanded that the cyclists move from his path so he could access his residence at a nearby condominium complex. Part of that confrontation was filmed and shared on Twitter and Facebook by Robert Svercl, a member of the bike brigade.
"Get the f--- out of the way!" The driver is heard yelling angrily at Svercl and another person before darting backwards down the alley. The driver does not appear to heed the presence of a pedestrian inches from his passenger side while doing so.
Moments later, the same aggressive driver was caught on camera barreling toward protesters at a high speed. Witnesses say he twice used his vehicle to charge at demonstrators in front of a condominium complex.
Those incidents are separate from what happened on Sunday, June 7, when Nikolas Fernandez, a 31-year-old man from north Seattle, accelerated towards protesters, also driving a black Honda Civic. Fernandez shot a protester in the arm who attempted to stop him.
On the afternoon of June 3, Seattle Police arrested Alvin Falley after witnesses say he charged at bicyclists with his sedan at the intersection of 6th Avenue and James Street — also during a protest. Falley was charged with a hit-and-run.

What is the concern?
One of the cars might suffer a dent.
Nobody anywhere I am is worried about it. Perhaps these azzholes need to stay out of the street.
