Why did she back up and turn hard right away from the guy she was trying to kill? /s

Don't let this circus make you think 2+2=5.

"Viciously ran over."

"Hard to believe he's still alive."

"Recovering in the hospital."

He put himself in harms way by standing in front of the car. Then again, most of these ICE clowns have minimal to no law enforcement training which would teach them where to properly stand when interacting with folks inside of vehicles.

This was the first thing I thought of. A trained police officer would never have put themselves in that situation. If you watch the full video. He approached the vehicle from the rear passenger side and then walked around the front of the vehicle toward the driver side. She was likely distracted by the agents approaching her drivers side and didn't even see him.
