A Gran Couva woman is demanding justice after an irate motorist attacked her and her family following a bad drive on Friday.
Michelle Roxanne Ramdoolar, a student at the Arthur Lok Jack School of Business, went on Facebook hours after the incident, asking the public to assist her in identifying the assailant.
In her post, Ramdoolar said she was driving in the vicinity of the Savonetta Fire Station, when the man overtook a long line of traffic and squeezed in front of her.
“I allowed him to cut in to avoid a possible accident but then he stopped abruptly to let out a passenger. I blew my horn, went around him and continued on my way only to realize he was driving at the side of me, cursing and asking if I was trying to damage his car,” Ramdoolar said.
She said the driver also tried to run her off the road.
“In a fit of rage he pulled in front of me, blocking traffic on both sides of the road. He ‘raff’ open my door and cuffed me multiple times on my face, dragged me out of my car by my hair and beat me in the road, bursting my mouth in multiple places and bruising me all over my body,” Ramdoolar added.
Her mother, Tara, and sister Rachell-Ann Ramdoolar tried to intervene, “but the man beat both of them,” Ramdoolar added.
Saying she believed the man was a PH driver, Ramdoolar warned the public to beware.
“Trinidad really have demons and if you know him or his whereabouts, please, I urge you to contact the nearest police station or convince him to turn himself in,” Ramdoolar added.
The three women went to the Couva District Health Facility where they got medical treatment. However, Ramdoolar said when they went to the Couva Police Station they were told that a report could not be taken as the station was short-staffed.
Couva police said yesterday that they were aware of the incident and were conducting investigations.
