A MAN is in custody after he allegedly ran over at least two people and narrowly missed a congresswoman during a Pride march in Florida on Saturday, according to local reports.
The horrifying incident unfolded during the Stonewall Pride Parade in Wilton Manors, around 10 miles north of Fort Lauderdale, at 7pm local time this evening.
The white pickup truck had been lined up with other floats at the beginning of the parade when it suddenly accelerated and ran over two people taking part in the event.
The two victims are said to be in critical condition. They were both taken to Broward Health Medical Center via ambulance, WPLG’s Ian Margol reported.
Officers were filmed administering CPR to one of the victims in the middle of the street.
Video posted to social media also showed a man being taken into custody that various witnesses and local media claimed to be the driver of the truck.
