LA U-Haul Incident at Iran Solidarity Rally Triggers Investigation
TL;DR Summary
A man drove a U-Haul truck through a crowd at a Los Angeles march in support of the Iranian people, injuring one person while prompting a police response and the dispersal of the crowd. The driver was detained as investigators, including the FBI and LAPD, examine the motive, with potential assault-with-a-vehicle charges being considered. Two protesters were evaluated by medics and declined treatment, and no serious injuries were reported. The truck bore a banner opposing the Shah and the Iranian regime, and Los Angeles hosts a large Iranian community.
