Car plunges into people during protests in Belgrade

A car plunged into people during protests in Belgrade, Serbia, knocking down three people – two women and a teenager. The injured people, observed with minor injuries, were taken to a hospital.

The driver attempted to escape, though the police arrested him. Law enforcers continue to work in cooperation with the competent prosecutor’s office to establish all the facts and circumstances of this incident.

Tens of thousands of people descended on Belgrade on Saturday as part of a mass rally seen as a culmination of months-long protests against Serbia’s populist President Aleksandar Vucic and his government.
