VIDEO: Tractor driver rams into hunt saboteurs in 4X4

Footage of an encounter between a tractor driver and hunt saboteurs has emerged across social media.

The incident reportedly occurred in Kent over the course of the weekend.

‘Blocked in’ for 20 minutes

A video was posted on West Kent Hunt Sabs’ Facebook page with the caption: “Here is a short clip of the appalling incident that occurred yesterday while sabbing the East Sussex & Romney Marsh hunt.”

“After blocking us in for 20 minutes, supporters of the hunt repeatedly drove their tractor into our vehicle causing serious damage. After this, the tractor drives to ram into South Coast Hunt Sabs vehicle.”

“How is this acceptable behaviour in modern-day society? We are extremely lucky to have got away uninjured. Hunting is a violent act and hunt supporters are violent people.” the social media post added.

‘There is a tractor running into my car’

In the video, an individual can be heard saying: “Get in, get in, get in, get.”
