A taxi driver suddenly drove onto the pedestrian walkway outside Hong Kong’s government building where protesters were gathered and rammed into them. As he knocked people to the ground, the driver didn’t slow down. He just plowed through the crowd until his vehicle hit an iron gate at a store entrance.

The incident occurred on Oct. 6 at around 4 p.m. Three pedestrians were injured, two in serious condition. The driver was later identified as 59-year-old Henry Cheng.
