In Ferguson, Missouri last night, protesters stopped traffic in an area of the city. Video and photos show a white motorist who had reportedly gotten out of his car because he was frustrated that he couldn’t get home was assaulted.

Evidence the police hands are tied in Ferguson. It's ok to assault a white man. https://t.co/VdcVW0ajVs — Annette (@Nettles18) October 25, 2014

It’s unclear if the police later ended up getting directly involved or not.

What led up to that guy getting choked ("attacked") last night in #Ferguson? — Lisa (@PaintClan) October 25, 2014

@Am3ricaChang3d this clip does not show how the confrontation started. They didn't have any conflict with anyone else. — Pjcoul (@paulcoulonjr) October 25, 2014

@paulcoulonjr They're blocking traffic, #Ferguson protesters are wrong. If you block traffic, you're wrong. Aim their hate at cops. — michael jason henry (@Am3ricaChang3d) October 25, 2014

#Ferguson protesters are peaceful and not racist but they choke a white guy on live steam for wanting to go home — american male (@jimmystanton191) October 25, 2014
