August 2019 truck attack

On August 14, 2019, several hundred protesters were organized outside of a parking lot by the Donald W. Wyatt Detention Facility in Central Falls, Rhode Island, when an ICE employee drove his pickup truck into the protesters.[21][22][23] The incident broke the leg and caused internal bleeding of a 64 year old protester.[24] Immediately afterwards, ICE guards pepper sprayed the protesters and the guard who drove the truck was not detained.[25] On August 15, 2019, the driver of the truck was placed on leave[26] and he resigned the next day.[27] The incident prompted an investigation by the Rhode Island Attorney General.[28]
