HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — A northwest Houston woman said she was followed, then attacked in downtown, and she doesn’t understand why.<\/p>\n
Sol, 25, is bruised, and her car is smashed up.<\/p>\n
“Confusion, anger, concern,” Sol said. “Like, what did I do?”<\/p>\n
She said she was followed by two strangers on Monday around 2 a.m.<\/p>\n
Eyewitness News agreed to hide her full name because she worries her attackers will find her.<\/p>\n
“The flashing was continuous. I thought they were going to start crashing into me at any point,” she said. “They started revving their car toward me and everything.”<\/p>\n
Sol said the white Nissan chased her through Midtown and downtown.<\/p>\n
Then, she stopped at a red light at Louisiana St. and McKinney St.<\/p>\n
That’s when she said a man, who was in the passenger seat, got out of the car and punched through her passenger window.<\/p>\n
The female driver, she says, crashed into her side of the car, then got out, too.<\/p>\n
“She grabbed my wallet, my keys, my phone,” she said. “She started cussing me out. She threw my phone really far from me.”<\/p>\n
Sol said the man and woman used a baseball bat to hit her and her car. Then, they left.<\/p>\n
“I was just left in loneliness and pain and just trying to figure out what had happened to me,” she explained.<\/p>\n
She said a passing cyclist called 911. Then, she found her phone on the ground and called her sister.<\/p>\n
“I answer, and she’s like, ‘They got me, they beat me up, I feel like I’m going to die,'” her sister said.<\/p>\n
Now, Sol is left with physical, mental, and financial pain.<\/p>\n
Her first car, which she spent years saving up to buy, is destroyed.<\/p>\n
“This could have been worse. She could have died. We don’t know if the person was so angry as to kill her,” her sister said.<\/p>\n
“It’s definitely life-changing, almost,” Sol said. “I just want to share the awareness for any solo drivers.”<\/p>\n
Houston police said they are looking for surveillance video of what happened.<\/p>\n
