For his part, the convoy member, Donald Bryan Thomas II of Butler, Ohio, who was driving a silver BMW 550i plastered with stickers like “TRUCKERS RULE!!! MSM LIES,” claimed to police that he was merely “driving forward slowly when [Bedard] walked into the street and in front of his vehicle while yelling and then laid down in the roadway.” Thomas couldn’t be reached for comment on Monday evening.
One eyewitness to the incident—a local DJ in the area—told The Daily Beast that “the lady [Bedard] went between the cars as her own form of protest yelling at them and said the driver of the BMW was at a full stop and then hit the gas .” The witness recalled that Bedard was “laying on the street” and that a gathering crowd worried the driver might attempt to further move “his car towards her again.” The tensions only worsened, he said, as the driver allegedly laid on his horn while the woman stayed on the ground.an outspoken member of the community
