Man Beats 82-Year-Old Senior Citizen After Car Accident

An 82-year-old woman was beaten in the chest after being rear-ended by an unknown motorist on Tuesday, WXYZ-TV reports. The woman, who asked the Detroit television station that her name not be used, was turning onto Pinehurst from W. McNichols Rd. on the city’s west side. It was then that an unidentified man hit her from behind.

When the woman got out to inspect the damages, the man began to beat her with his fists.

“He just came over and grabbed me… literally lifted me off the ground. He’s a big man” she says. She also says she yelled at the man, “Leave me alone! Leave me alone! Why are you doing this?”

“This is an 82-year-old and she didn’t deserve to be beat down out of her shoe like that. He hit her so hard that her shoe came off her foot,” said Duncan.
