Coast Guard Shoots Driver Amid Alameda Protests

Coast Guard security shot a U-Haul driver and injured a bystander outside the Alameda, California base Thursday night after officials said the driver tried to ram into the base and then reversed at high speed toward officers. Both are expected to survive; no Coast Guard personnel were hurt, according to Homeland Security. The confrontation followed daytime protests against a planned immigration operation on Coast Guard Island, even as President Trump said he had called off a federal surge for San Francisco. An FBI spokeswoman said the shooting appears isolated. Some activists feared the incident could fuel a broader crackdown.
