Man Accused of Endangering Children at COVID-19 Vaccination Site

A purported protestor who reportedly drove his Jeep erratically in the parking lot at a COVID-19 vaccination clinic was arrested and charged with more than one criminal offense.

It was reported that approximately 400 people were in attendance.
In addition to the people there to get the COVID-19 vaccines at the museum, it was reported that a group of protestors were on the premises making it known that they were against it.
According to the authorities, someone that they purported to be a protestor began to drive a Jeep with the floodlights turned on was going in circles in a parking lot at the site. The vehicle was reportedly going fast, and it was believed that it was placing the youngsters that were playing on the sidewalk and others attending the event in harm’s way.
