WEST PALM BEACH — Protesters lined up outside the Tesla showroom in President Donald Trump’s home county on Saturday were met by honks, mainly in support.
#Then, a black SUV drove into the crowd of more than 100 protesters. No one was injured but the near-miss incident underscores the rising tension over the automaker’s CEO, Elon Musk, and his high-profile, and highly controversial, role in the Trump administration.
“He drove into a crowd of senior citizens,” said Mark Offerman of the Democratic Progressive Caucus Palm Beach County about the driver. “Everybody was able to move out, but two older women were really almost clipped. We immediately called the cops.”
Upon arriving, police spoke with the driver and interviewed about five protesters, who also provided photo and video evidence of what had happened. The man was arrested at the scene and will be charged with assault, according to a deputy from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
I searched for an article that actually had the real story as the headline and was unable to find one. That in of itself is newsworthy.
So bigass text it is!
