At least one person was killed and another was injured when a vehicle plowed into a group of protesters in Minneapolis on Sunday night, police said. The deadly incident occurred in the Uptown neighborhood at around 11:39 p.m. CT. The Minneapolis Police Department said its officers were monitoring a demonstration in the area when a car drove into the crowd. After the collision, protesters confronted the driver. "Protesters pulled the suspect from the vehicle and, from reports of witnesses, began to strike the driver," police said in a statement early Monday. "Officers arrived and took custody of the driver." Additional squads and several ambulances were called to the scene. Two injured protesters were transported by ambulance to a local hospital. One was in "very critical condition," while the other had non-life-threatening injuries, police said. The critically injured protester -- a woman -- has since died at the hospital, according to police.
