”Some guys attacked me, they were hitting on the car and were asking me to whine down. As they were hitting, they broke the side mirror, which caused a little bit of injury on my hand.

”I was just shaking, I decided to drive first to TVC to calm down before I head back home.

”I reported this issue on Wednesday, I reported that someone got robbed at that same place, I said it on the show, I said we need to have more security presence there.

”There were police people there, but they were by the van, the robbery took place after the van. They were young boys, they came to the side of the car.

”I know that it was God, I was able to just move left and right. I’m going to head back home, try and dust off all the glass from my body, but we can’t afford to do this.

”Everywhere there is traffic there is a risk to our lives, and the government needs to do more than this.”
