FERGUSON, MO -- A spokesman for Ferguson, Missouri, says it appears the driver who struck a protester at an event marking the second anniversary of Michael Brown's death did not do so intentionally.

WARNING: Extremely graphic video - Viewer discretion is advised

The spokesman tells the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that the driver who hit a man standing in the road last night is cooperating with police.

Witnesses say gunfire broke after the collision, and there are small bullet holes in the woman's car. No one in the vehicle was injured.
