UPDATE: 2 Women Arrested in Brutal Road Rage Beatdown; Cops Search for More Suspects
Police in Jersey City are looking for several people involved in the beating of a motorist.
A video shows the incident that occurred at roughly 3 a.m. Sunday. The intersection was busy late Saturday night following a scorching day, with plenty of witnesses around to see what went down.
The motorist is seen being pulled from his car and then viciously punched, kicked and stomped by the group. Police are currently looking for six people, four men and two women, for their suspected roles in the beatdown.
The beating may have been preceded by a minor parking space fender bender. After an initial confrontation, the man tried to get in his car and drive away before someone jumped on his windshield, breaking it. Another person is seen in the video jumping on the hood of the Cadillac.
The man is seen lying motionless on the pavement after the attack.
Thankfully, a Jersey City spokeswoman says the 42-year-old man was not killed, and was treated at a hospital before being released. The extent of his injuries was unclear.
