Tennessee woman drives into vaccination tent to protest

Associated Press

MARYVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A police report says a Tennessee woman has been charged with reckless endangerment for driving through a COVID-19 vaccine distribution tent as a form of protest.

According to news outlets, a Blount County deputy who witnessed the event Monday at Foothills Mall in Maryville said more than a dozen people were inside the tent, including health workers and National Guard personnel.

Several said multiple people were almost hit.

The deputy arrested 36-year-old Virginia Christine Lewis Brown.

She told him she drove through the site to protest the vaccine and was only traveling 5 miles per hour.

It wasn’t immediately clear whether Brown has an attorney.

With multiple counts to me. Hope she is put away permanently. This one needs to be locked up.

After all, in a few states you can hit protestors and it's okay.
