Car swerves into marchers, injures 10 en route to Capitol

Since this is the 36th anniversary of the shootings at Kent State, I thought I would link to this article about an incident that occurred several days after the shootings, in which a drunken motorist ran his car into a group of peace protesters marching from MSU to the capital in Lansing.

“A motorist injured 10 young people when he swerved his red Falcon into a crowd of marchers near the intersection of Michigan and LaSalle Boulevard. Lansing police chief Derold Husby said late Thursday afternoon that the motorist has been charged with driving under the influence of alcohol.

… Admitted to Olin Health Center for observation and treatment of an ankle injury was Mary K. Goulet, Greenville sophomore.”

Mary is my sister.  Here is a link to the full article:
