INDIANAPOLIS -- A woman was arrested Wednesday night in a road rage beating of an elderly driver earlier in the day, police said.
Jessica Vasquez (pictured), 19, was taken into custody after she assaulted an 81-year-old woman who she thought was driving slowly in the 6200 block of South Meridian Street, on Indianapolis' south side, according to Indianapolis Metro police.

Police said Vasquez sped around the woman them slammed on her brakes, forcing the elderly woman to stop.

Then, according to police, Vasquez jumped out of her car, opened the elderly woman's driver's-side door and began beating her.

Police said the victim tried to get away, but that Vasquez pulled her out of the car and continued beating her, forcing her to fall into two lanes of traffic.

The elderly woman's face was bloodied and her leg was broken in three places, police said. She was taken to a hospital for treatment.

"This is a crime that is outrageous, something that we don't normally see," said IMPD Detective Wendall Daniel. "We don't normally see a female, 19 years old, beating an 81-year-old woman."

Witnesses followed Vasquez's car as she sped away and were able to give police a license number, which led to her arrest.

"It was through the help of a lot of Good Samaritans today that we were able to put this case together so quickly," Daniel said. "We had civilians who saw this and stopped to help the victim."

Vasquez expressed remorse in a profanity-laced interview with 6News as she was taken to a police station.

"I don't have anything to explain to you," Vasquez said. "I hope she's feeling better tomorrow."

Witnesses told police that Vasquez had as many as three young children in her car when the incident occurred.

Vasquez could be charged with felony battery and confinement, police said.

I hope she finds out what hardened 40 year old women in jail do to little 19 year olds, and then I hope she feels better the next day".

She'll hopefully get tossed in the can for a long while.

Holy crap!
Yeah, I can only hope that the ::cough cough:: nice people she meets in jail will help her educational process out some.
This is fucking ridiculous!

In all honesty, I am quite sure alot of people on this forum have THOUGHT about doing something similar to some elderly person doing 25mph on a 45mph road. I sure have many times, and if you wrote down some of the things I've said while trying to get around them, it would burn the paper. Hell, when I have my daughter in the car I've come home with a damn near bitten-off lower lip.
However, there is a big difference between cursing till the air turns blue, and thinking about strangling someone and actually doing it. That said I hope the lock her up for a very long time.

LoL everytime I see an old driver or even a slow walking ped, who gets in my way, I only scream that they should just stay home and wait for their death....have the children/grand children buy groceries and pick up prescription for them.

Well, I don't have that problem when driving, but I do get aweful pissed at the little freshmen at school that like to clog up the hallways so that nobody can get through while they talk with their friends about what happened on American Idol last night. THOSE are the people I want to beat the crap out of. I don't, though. I just make myself look like a jerk as I charge through and shove them out of the way.

But yeah, that lady is a danger to everyone and should be put away for a long time.

Send her to a man's jail for 5 years. No solitary confinement, must stay with the general population. That's the WEB sentence.

Unbelievable. To this date our nations best generation. These people put up with the Great Depression (what we happen to think is going on now, sure, eat lard sandwhiches for two years straight then maybe you have cry), and going to WWII, with the wives wondering what might happen. Its crazy to think, but we got it pretty damn good.
