VIDEO shows the horrifying moment a driver ran over a pedestrian during a Black Lives Matter protest in North Carolina over the weekend, breaking both of his legs.
Jared Benjamin Lafer, 27, faces charges in connection with the Saturday incident, police said.
The SUV was seen slowly moving through the crosswalk, before pushing down a man standing with a dog, and driving over his legs.
The vehicle hit a man, bumped a woman, and crushed a bicycle.
A man was seen lying motionless on the ground as bystanders rushed to his aid as the car drove away.
A male victim was transported to the hospital for treatment, police said in a statement.
A police report identified the injured man as Jonathan Bowers, WCYB reported.
Protester Alyjah Gilmer told WCYB that Bowers broke both his legs, and is now in a wheelchair.
A 26-year-old woman who was also struck did not require treatment for her injuries, Johnson City Press reported.
