Two people were taken into custody in New York City last week after being caught on video using racial slurs and violently assaulting a female motorist over a parking space.
According to police and reported by Fox News Digital on Saturday, Andreea Dumitru, 45, and Sabrina Starman, 21, were arrested and charged with assault. Their victim, a 21-year-old driver, was attacked outside a residence in Ridgewood, Queens.
Reddit users claimed that the attackers were a mother and daughter, who became aggressive when the victim attempted to move a trash can set in the street to reserve a parking spot.
The suspects allegedly punched the woman multiple times in the face and body, causing substantial pain, authorities said.

Moments later, Starman lunges at the woman and begins throwing punches. Dumitru and an unidentified man joined in by hitting the woman and pulling her hair as the victim curled up defensively.
A bystander with a cane was also heard yelling as the scuffle escalated.
Police arrested Dumitru and Starman at the scene, and the victim was treated for her injuries on-site, authorities said.
