A white North Carolina man is facing misdemeanor charges after assaulting a white family over a Black Lives Matter sign last week.
Nova Tempest, 19, was driving 26-year-old sibling Olivia Pugh and their 17-year-old brother to a dentist’s appointment on Dec. 3 when 55-year-old Rod Steven Sturdy of Lewisville began to drive in an aggressive faction that targeted the family, the Winston-Salem Journal reported.
Police reports describe an encounter that began when Sturdy began to alternate between tailgating the vehicle and cutting the family off before slamming on his brakes in front of them.
The family had a Black Lives Matter sign and a sign that said “Prosecute the cops who murdered Breonna Taylor” showing in the back window of the car.
