A protest at Portage and Main turned into panic on Wednesday afternoon after a man drove a car through the downtown Winnipeg intersection during the demonstration, held in response to the death of a woman who was hit by a police cruiser earlier this week.
The man drove toward the intersection and protesters less than half an hour into the event, which started at noon and blocked the Portage Avenue and Main Street intersection.
At least two people attempted to block the vehicle’s path with their bicycles, but the driver continued to move forward before others jumped on the car’s hood, a video posted to Instagram by the cyclist group Critical Mass Winnipeg shows.
