WATCH: Road rage suspect drags mom out of vehicle, body-slams her on pavement

A mother of two from Massachusetts was severely hurt after being forcibly removed from her car and thrown headfirst to the ground in a road-rage incident captured on video following a minor car collision. Hailea Soares, 31, was driving in Attleboro, Massachusetts, at around 9 a.m. on a Friday when she rear-ended the car in front of her, which had abruptly stopped. According to WHDH-TV News, she stated, “He kept slamming on his brakes and then when we got to the intersection, he hit a light and he was in front of me. As soon as we went through, we didn’t even make it across and he slammed on the brakes, so I hit him.”

The incident took a severe turn when the man in the other car aggressively pulled Soares out of her vehicle and body-slammed her headfirst onto the pavement. The violent attack was recorded on video and shocked onlookers. Soares, who suffered serious injuries as a result of the assault, recounted the traumatic experience, “He reached in his car, pulled me out, and body-slammed me into the ground, headfirst. I don’t remember getting hit, I don’t remember getting thrown, nothing.” The disturbing footage of the incident circulated widely, prompting outrage and concern for Soares’ well-being.

Witnesses at the scene rushed to help Soares and called 911 for emergency assistance. Soares was immediately taken to a nearby hospital for treatment of her injuries caused by the brutal attack. The attacker fled the scene before the authorities arrived. The community expressed shock and disbelief at the violent nature of the incident, with many offering their support and solidarity with Soares as she recovers from the traumatic event. The police are actively investigating the case and seeking the perpetrator to ensure that justice is served for the victim.

Kweshia was arrested on scene and charged with assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon resulting in serious injury, malicious destruction of property and driving without a license, per the Attleboro Police Department. He is being held behind bars on $25,000 bail.

Soares said she was just happy to survive the attack.

“He was just being a jerk— on the road,” she said in an interview with ABC-TV News. “I don’t know if he was having a bad day. I don’t know what that was, but if that’s the type of person he is, I don’t think he belongs in society with the rest of us.”

A GoFundMe initiative for Soares’ medical expenses had raised nearly $29,000 as of Tuesday afternoon.
