The victim of a brutal Bronx traffic tantrum shares new details of her traumatic experience as she bids police locate the man whose violent outburst later caused her to miscarry.
26-year-old Estrella Guzman was driving in Fordham Heights around 5:30 p.m. on June 6 when she said she was being followed and cut off by a stranger outside a clothing store along a shopping street.
Guzman speaks out to describe how the attack tragically changed her life.
“I have a very bad PTSD right now,” said Guzman, the victim of the attack. She sustained a severe laceration on her head and miscarried one week after the attack
Guzman said she tried to drive away but the man’s car pulled her down near the Grand Concourse and Fordham Road. Guzman then got out of her car to see what was going on. What happened next was caught on a surveillance video released by the NYPD on Friday.
It shows the man and Guzman fighting in the middle of a street as she takes a step back as he urges forward. Then, out of the camera’s field of view, the woman appears to fall against a car. The man hits Guzman in the head with what appears to be a screwdriver during the broad daylight attack.
It’s been nearly a month since the assault occurred that left Guzman shaken.
As of this writing, New York police are still searching for the man who brutally attacked a pregnant woman.
More details of this tragic incident from “WABC”:
Police are searching for the man who brutally attacked a pregnant woman in the Bronx in an apparent road rage incident.
It happened on Monday, June 6, at 5:20 p.m. on Grand Concourse.
Guzman said the man began attacking her with a screwdriver, jabbing her repeatedly in the head and then going for her neck.
“He stabbed me five times in the head,” she said. “I got a scar on my head, which I’m covering.”
She sustained a severe laceration to her head, but then she fought back.
“I was in shock,” she said. “I didn’t know how to react until I kept feeling the jabs on my neck and I started clawing at his eyes.”
She then tried to get away.
“When I tried to get in my car to try and stop him, he ended up running me over,” she said. “I’m literally squished in between his car and my car.”
He then fled the scene in a silver BMW, and she was transported by EMS to St. Barnabas Hospital.
There, she learned she was three months pregnant.
About a week after the attack, she miscarried.
