() Video captured a violent confrontation as a man allegedly attacked a woman’s car after yelling racial slurs at her.

The woman was trying to find a parking spot in a neighborhood near Lexington and Lodi Avenues around 7 p.m. on May 13. As she drove on the narrow streets, she approached a truck that was blocking the road outside a home that was under construction. 

When she asked the truck owner if he could move his vehicle, she said things escalated almost immediately.

Two men allegedly began yelling profanities at her, along with racial slurs, including the N-word, she said. One of the men approached her open car window.

“He stuck his hand inside [my car] and reached at me, reached at my phone, and that’s when I took out my pepper spray and deployed it,” said the victim, who did not want to be identified out of safety concerns. “I maced him and then he backed away.”

The woman said the man then went to the garage of the home under construction and emerged holding a power saw.

“I was honestly just too stunned to move or even speak at that point,” she told Nexstar’s KTLA. “But I still managed to record [the incident] on my phone, to hear what was going on.”

She said that’s when the man began attacking her car with the power saw.

“He comes up to my passenger window and strikes the window and backside passenger door multiple times,” she said. “Just hacks at it, which you can hear in the video. At that point, that’s when I decided to call 911.”

By the time police arrived, the man with the power saw had fled, she said. The second man at the construction site stayed behind and gave police a statement. He told KTLA that the suspect was not part of his construction crew and was simply a man who had been walking by and had offered to help him with his equipment. 

Police are now searching for the man, who faces battery charges. The woman said the attack caused around $1,000 worth of damage to her vehicle, according to her own estimate.

Although she was uninjured during the ordeal, she hopes the suspect is caught soon before he strikes again.

“I was terrified,” she said. “I was like, stuck in fear, but I just knew from the moment he made the first initial racial comment that I had to record.”

She described the suspect as a bald, Caucasian man in his 50s or older. He stands about 5 feet 5 inches tall and has green eyes, a mustache, and a scar on his left middle finger.

Anyone with information on the suspect is urged to call the Los Angeles Police Department at  1-877-527-3247.
