Woman badly injured after hit-and-run at Riverside ‘No Kings’ protest
Police are searching for a driver suspected of significantly injuring a woman in a hit-and-run during a Riverside “No Kings” protest on Saturday, June 14.
Whether the crash was intentional or politically motivated remains under investigation, but the hit-and-run is being investigated as an assault with a deadly weapon, Riverside Police Officer Ryan Railsback said.
Around 9:10 p.m., some 200 protesters marched along the street on University Avenue between Main and Orange streets in Riverside when a dark-colored SUV sped around the march and struck a woman, then fled the scene.
The woman was hospitalized with significant injuries, Railsback said.
“No Kings Day of Defiance” protests drew several thousand people around the Inland Empire throughout the day and into the night. At one point on Saturday evening, several hundred protesters present during the Riverside crash had merged with people who attended a large anti-ICE protest, which began earlier that day.
As of Sunday afternoon, no arrests were made.
