Horrific moment hulking driver BODYSLAMS single mother to the ground for unthinkably small reason
This is the moment a Rhode Island driver knocked a mother of two to the ground during a road rage incident in Massachusetts.
Gladior Kwesiah, 26, of Pawtucket, was arrested and charged with assault and battery after she knocked Hailea Soares, 31, of Somerset, to the ground following a minor car accident on Jan. 3.
Soares accidentally hit Kwesiah’s car from behind at an intersection in Attleboro around 9 a.m., causing the man to get out of his car, bang on Soares’ roof and allegedly drag her from her car.
Dashcam footage showed Soares body-slammed to the ground as he struggled to get out of his grasp in the middle of the road.
The hulking man was seen lifting her tiny body above his shoulder before slamming her head into the pavement. Her body slumped and it seemed like she was having trouble getting up.
“By the time I realized I was in the air… I thought to myself, ‘I might die right now,'” Soares said. WSAZ. ‘It was a strange feeling I felt on my face. I realized I was on the ground and rolled over. Blood dripped down my hands.’
Police found the single mother on the ground with blood coming from her head wound and she was rushed to hospital.
‘I don’t know if he was having a bad day. I don’t know what that was, but if that’s the type of person he is, I don’t think he belongs in society with the rest of us,” she told the outlet.

‘I didn’t even say anything violent to him. “I didn’t say anything and he seemed very focused, very driven,” she said WPRI.
Kwesiah was arrested and charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon causing serious bodily injury, destroying property and operating an unlicensed motor vehicle.
His bail has been set at $2,500.
“He was just an idiot on the road,” recalled Soares, who has two young children at home. ‘All I could think was, “I probably won’t be able to walk again.”
‘I can’t even take care of my children. I can’t even climb stairs. “I can’t put my own sock on my foot,” she said.
Soares, who has left the hospital, is grateful to be reunited with her one- and eight-year-old children.
A family friend, Bianca Lynn, started one GoFundMe to help the mother recover from her injuries and care for her children.

“Hailea suffered serious injuries including a broken knee, broken foot, damage to her eye socket and severe skull injuries,” Bianca revealed in the fundraiser. “As a single mother of two young children, Hailea now faces an uphill battle – physically, emotionally and financially.”

Soares is expected to be out of work for months while she heals, Bianca said.
“Hailea is a loving mother and a fighter who has always been there for others in times of need,” she said.
The fundraiser raised more than $34,500 of its $40,000 goal.
