Pickup rolls through protesters gathered on Interstate 244; state troopers questioning driver


A pickup pulling a horse trailer drove through a crowd of Black Lives Matter protesters on a Tulsa interstate Sunday night, sending two people to the hospital with what a law enforcement spokeswoman described as “minor injuries.”

The incident occurred on Interstate 244 eastbound near Detroit Avenue. The driver wasn't initially stopped by law enforcement at the scene; but an Oklahoma Highway Patrol spokeswoman said troopers later stopped the truck and were questioning the driver.

One of the organizers of the Black Lives Matter rally, the Rev. Eric Gill of Metropolitan Baptist Church, said a red truck being driven by a man "who put a gun on the dashboard and threatened us before he took off" was in the vehicle that drove through the crowd.

The man wasn't initially detained by law enforcement after the incident.

"The fact that they let him go is a microcosm of what we have been going through," Gill said.

A video of the scene posted on Tulsa television station Fox-23's Facebook page shows the truck driving through the crowd and then stopping near a group of state troopers. Protesters can be seen running toward the truck before it pulls away.

OHP spokeswoman Sarah Stewart said troopers met the driver at a different location for an interview to get him away from the “agitated” protesters. At least two people were injured when he drove through protesters.

Stewart said Sunday night the incident remained under investigation.

Tulsa World photographer Mike Simons was at the scene documenting the rally when the truck drove through the crowd.
