Man who drove van through Trump support tent explains in detail his motives
A report on the incident is now available and shows the attacker was politically motivated, wanted to “take a stand” and proudly showed officers videos just before running the tent over with his vehicle.
“Upon arrival I made contact with the victims who were volunteering at a Republican tent in the parking lot located near the Petco. They stated that while they were working the listed vehicle began slowly driving towards them. Victim 1 advised that she had been walking up to the driver’s side to talk to the suspect. Victim 2 was standing on the passenger side of the vehicle. They both stated that the vehicle then accelerated towards them and the tent. Both victims had to move out of the way quickly in order to prevent themselves form being struck by the vehicle. The suspect continued to drive and snowed over several chairs, tables and a tent. The suspect then got out of the vehicle, took out his phone, ‘flipped them off’ and drove away,” the report, written by an officer, states.
