A convicted felon with known gang affiliations has been re-arrested following allegations that he attempted to push a 19-year-old pregnant woman out of a moving vehicle on a Los Angeles freeway last month, according to authorities.
The incident occurred around 12:30 p.m. on February 24, when the California Highway Patrol responded to a 911 call reporting a domestic violence situation on the northbound 110 Freeway. Officers later connected with the victim, referred to as Jane Doe, at a residence, where they observed “visible facial injuries from the alleged altercation,” according to CHP officials.
Jane Doe informed investigators that she was driving the car when her ex-boyfriend, seated in the passenger seat, attempted to force her out of the vehicle as they traveled on the freeway near Century Boulevard.
“Jane Doe managed to drive to a relative’s home, where she called 911 for assistance,” said the CHP. “The male passenger, identified as a known gang member and parolee, fled the scene before officers arrived.”
She told investigators she was behind the wheel when her ex‑boyfriend, who was seated in the passenger seat, tried to shove her from the car as they sped along the freeway near Century Blvd.
“Jane Doe ultimately drove to a relative’s house where she dialed 911 for help,” CHP said. “The male passenger, a known gang member and parolee fled the area prior to the officer arrival.”
CHP’s Special Investigation Unit worked with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and learned the suspect was on parole and had removed a court‑ordered ankle monitor.
Less than two days later, with help from the U.S. Marshals Service, officers tracked him down and arrested him “as he actively attempted to evade capture,” authorities said. He was booked on charges including felony domestic violence, carjacking and parole violations. His name was not released.
“The California Highway Patrol takes all reports of highway violence seriously, including domestic violence,” officials added. Victims or witnesses can call 800‑799‑SAFE (7233) or text “Start” to 88788.
