One injured after vehicles drive through Breonna Taylor protesters in Hollywood

At least one protester was taken to the hospital after being struck by a vehicle during a demonstration in Hollywood on Thursday night.

Video posted to social media shows a blue truck striking a protester who was holding a sign, knocking the person to the ground. The incident happened after the driver became involved in an altercation while maneuvering through the crowd of more than 300 protesters, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.

"As the driver attempted to get away from the situation, he struck a protester standing in the street," the LAPD said in a statement shared on Twitter.

CBS Los Angeles reports the driver drove off and was initially detained by law enforcement a few blocks away from the scene before being allowed to leave.

The protester was taken to a hospital with minor injuries, police said.
