A video by a local NBC reporter, Jodi Hernandez, showed when when anti- Trump protesters surrounded a California Highway Police patrol car and one person was seen climbing on the hood.
Our camera was rolling when anti- Trump protestors surrounded a CHP patrol car. One person climbed on the hood and the officer drove forward. Two people were injured…one was taken to hospital. The crowd had gathered to protest the President as he visited Sacramento pic.twitter.com/5iZFjXGglz

As the officer drove forward, that person is seen being slammed to the pavement, hitting feet first and then his head bounces off next as the crowd converges to assist the injured person.
According to reports, two people were injured and one was taken to hospital. The crowd had gathered to protest President Trump as he visited Sacramento.
Responses from both sides to the tweet did not show much sympathy to the injured person thrown from the car. One Twitter user who goes by “Kind Atheist” said that “With schools closed it nice these children are learning the basics of physics. Field trips are a quintessential part of the learning process.”

Another Twitter user who claimed to be part of “The Resistance” to President Trump concurred, saying “They were stupid to surround the patrol car, as it could be seen as threatening. Second, he climbed the car. It’s one thing to protest Trump, which I support 100%, but it’s another to surround & climb on a patrol car. It creates a hostile environment. Peaceful protesting is key.”

Independent, conservative @kelsieA67 used a common adage, saying, “Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. These “protestors ” need to learn that, apparently the hard way.”

These "protestors " need to learn that, apparently the hard way.
Another anti-Trumper, Diana Contini M.D., said that this “will be the one time” she is “not on the side of an anti-Trump protester.” She added, “He asked for that.”
This will be the one time I am not on the side of an anti-Trump protester. He asked for that.
