\u2014 Orlando Police (@OrlandoPolice) March 20, 2026<\/a> <\/p>\n According to investigators, a 35-year-old pregnant woman was driving a van with her baby in the back seat when she turned from Conroy Road onto Millenia Boulevard. The suspect, Mandolyn Shafferbrockwell, yelled at her for honking her horn, then jumped on the hood of the van, opened the door, and hit the victim in the face and chest.<\/p>\n Driver Michael Rogers said, \u201cThat\u2019s insane, and people are so discourteous to each other while driving. I just can\u2019t believe it.\u201d<\/p>\n A 68-year-old good Samaritan told us off-camera that other drivers sat and watched from their cars, so she went over to help, and the suspect punched her as well. She said another stranger assisted her and the victim to safety.<\/p>\n Driver Anthony Gammage recommended others call law enforcement, saying, \u201cFirst thing, call the police, save you, stay out of trouble.\u201d<\/p>\n Drivers said the intersection is difficult because of heavy traffic and the timing of the lights. Gammage said, \u201cIt\u2019s very congested. Traffic is really bad over there.\u201d Rogers said it can be challenging, adding, \u201cIt can be a nightmare at times, trying to get out of the conglomeration of businesses in this area into that traffic and then trying to get out.\u201d<\/p>\n According to investigators, Shafferbrockwell bit an officer as he tried putting cuffs on her during the arrest.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, we reached out to the victim and are awaiting a response. Gammage said, \u201cHope she\u2019ll be ok.\u201d<\/p>\n Shafferbrockwell is out of jail on a $20,000 bond. She is charged with battery on a person 65 years of age or older, aggravated battery on a law enforcement officer, burglary with assault\/battery, and resisting an officer with violence.<\/p>\n Mandolyn Shaffer-Brockwell is also accused of attacking a woman who tried to help the victim and biting an officer while he was trying to arrest her.<\/p>\n Click here<\/a> to download our free news, weather and smart TV apps.
