I suspect he won’t be in to work today.
True, but reports are that the stretch of I-5 was closed by the cops well before the incident. From the link:
Officials were trying to determine the motive as well as where he got onto the interstate, which had been closed by the state patrol for more than an hour before the protesters were hit. Mead said they suspect Kelete drove the wrong way on a ramp. Trooper Rick Johnson said the driver went through a barrier that closed the freeway.
So much for the driver being an innocent victim.
Wow. This is unfortunate for the young man. Hopefully he will find good legal help.
After studying the video, I find no fault in his actions. I probably would have done the same thing.
You can tell he was not going the wrong way. Look at the on ramp in the video.
Motive?
Maybe getting from point A to point B.
If: Protestor
Then: ISGAS
Other: IGNORE
possibly another noob disrupter (been noticing a few coming out lately)
I thought I was the only one who didn’t like jags..
Huh....
OK, the cops’ statements are contradictory, but why did he go through the barrier which closed the ramp? Was there no other way to get from A to B?
I don’t think killing a couple of protestors was the motive for what he did. I think he was just acting irresponsibly and that led to the incident. Maybe he thought that he had rights that other people don’t have. Some people are like that.
The police report will be interesting. I’m sure they have the readout from the car’s black box.
His job title was “Operations Manager.”
AKA delivery driver.
I have a hard time believing an Antifa member was able to catch a “fleeing” Jaguar in under a mile.

Ain’t that the truth!
Statues to Kapernick, Saint Trayvon and any other POS the left wishes to elevate.
Love the pic btw. :)
Eh.
I just threw up a little bit.
Are those two pre-op or post-op?
I have zero sympathy for these petulant little terrorists.
They want to protest, that’s fine go to a park and protest, go to city hall and protest.
But the minute they take away a person’s right to free movement, or they illegally detain people by blocking a major road or highway they become fair game to taste a bumper or two. A lot of these roads and highways have signs that clearly states that pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles are prohibited.
No other civilized country in the world would allow these terrorists to block highways as they get away with here. In Germany, the Polizei would be out there with water cannons, and the officers on foot would be cracking skulls with the Hickory clubs/batons and leather wrapped saps they carry.
