Coast Guard Opens Fire on U-Haul at Alameda Base: Driver Flees and Walks Away
A truck driver was shot and wounded by law enforcement officers after attempting to ram a vehicle into a U.S. Coast Guard base in the San Francisco Bay Area. According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the driver was trying to weaponize the vehicle at Coast Guard Base Alameda, where protests against federal immigration agents had occurred earlier. The FBI is investigating the incident, which appears isolated, as the driver failed to comply with multiple verbal commands to stop, accelerating toward officers. The incident occurred hours after President Donald Trump called off a planned surge of federal agents into San Francisco.
