A sheriff's vehicle hit a woman named Wanda Cleveland, 61, at a protest over the police killing of Stephon Clark in Sacramento, California, Saturday night.
"The vehicle accelerated and struck her, accelerated very fast, and struck her violently, and she fell to the ground," said Guy Danilowitz, who recorded video of the incident. "It was a very fast acceleration, not the way you would move with people around."
