In the city of Yorba Linda protests have been plentiful this week. In light of recent events, the Black Lives Matter protest has been abundant but mostly peaceful. During Saturday’s Caravan for Justice rally around three in the afternoon, protestors were targeted and hit by a car outside of the public library. A woman by the name of Tatiana Turner was booked into the Orange County Jail. The crime she has allegedly committed is attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon.

An organizer of a Southern California demonstration against racism was placed in jail on suspicion of attempted murder. Authorities say she drove through a crowd and struck two counter protesters. Tatiana Turner was named as the driver. She was there with about 150 people protesting police brutality and systemic racism at the Yorba Linda library. There is video and photos of the incident. The footage shows loud protesters, some waving American flags and a Trump 2020 banner, around Turner's white car as she accelerates away. Turner is being held on a one million dollar bail and expected to appear in court Tuesday, according to a county website.
