LOS ANGELES (KABC) — A man has been arrested in connection with a violent road-rage attack against two reality TV stars in Hollywood, according to Los Angeles police.
Patrik Simpson and Pol’ Atteu, co-hosts of the show “Gown and Out Beverly Hills” and the “Undressed” podcast, say they were on Melrose Avenue and Vine Street Sunday morning when the driver of a Toyota 4Runner blocked their car at the busy intersection.
Footage of the attack shows a man punching and kicking the window and door of the couple’s car before taking off.
“He gave me this death glare, like, literally, I thought he was going to kill us,” Simpson, who recorded the video, recounted to Eyewitness News earlier this week.
The reality stars say the violent interaction came without warning as they sat at the intersection.
“He punched the window… blood on the car. His hand was bleeding. That’s how hard he hit the car,” Simpson said.
The couple said they couldn’t figure out what triggered the man in the first place.
Police identified the suspect as Kevin Antonio Hernandez.
He was arrested Wednesday and booked on suspicion of felony vandalism. He’s since been released.
