Several pro-lifers in Arkansas recently faced danger during a prayer demonstration at an abortion clinic.
The incident happened in Fayetteville, Arkansas, as three students from Subiaco Academy and their priest joined in the 40 Days for Life campaign outside an abortion clinic. Spokesperson Barbara Durkee further explains the incident. "As they were out there praying on the sidewalk, a man in a suburban swerve[d] over and ran up on the curb and came down on the sidewalk to try to run three of the youths over," Durkee recounts. "Two of them jumped literally out of the way from being hit." About 30 minutes later, police arrested 42-year-old Jason Bryant Shireman and initially charged him with attempted murder. A prosecutor reduced the charge to three counts of aggravated assault. "He admitted that he was just joking," Durkee adds. "And then he has gone on to say also that he was just trying to show them what he thought about them." Shireman has been released on bond and faces arraignment later this month.
