HOUSTON – A couple is facing assault charges following a road rage incident in Houston that was caught on cellphone video.
Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said a man was driving north on I-45 near FM 1960 with his 2-year-old son in the car on Tuesday afternoon when they were involved in a road rage incident with a couple in a truck.
When the man exited the highway, he noticed he was being followed by the truck, according to KSAT’s sister station KPRC.
Both vehicles stopped near Parramatta Lane where the driver of the truck, a Navy veteran identified as Benjamin Greene, 34, allegedly got out of his vehicle and assaulted the man.
Gonzalez said the victim began to flee in his car and that’s when 40-year-old Nazly Ortiz allegedly got out of the truck holding a handgun and fired into the backseat passenger window of the vehicle.
The victim continued driving and Ortiz allegedly fired another shot at the car, which struck a car dealership building.
According to Gonzalez, the victim was transported to a local hospital with a possible graze wound and is said to be in good condition.
ABC 13 spoke to the victim who said he was grazed by a bullet on his head. He said it didn’t bleed but that the area was swollen.
The victim also said the 2-year-old was his nephew and that he was hit by shattered glass but is doing ok.
Ortiz and Greene both appeared in court on Wednesday, according to KPRC. The judge did not set bail for either suspect.
The couple appeared to be wearing the same clothes in court that they were seen wearing in the video.

How many EXISTING gun laws were broken?
Got a link other than the heavily edited news station?
An assault truck with a fully automatic transmission. Probably 8 cylinders in the clip.
No one needs more than 4 cylinders!
Gonzales, ortiz, green and victim. I can’t tell who is who.
Thank God nobody was hurt. Stupid people.
That woman needs to be locked up for a long time and then deported, but that’s not how things tend to work in Commie Kim Ogg’s world.
And it looks like Dora the Explorer still has face-diaper mandates? There sure are a lot of diapered faces in that courtroom.
Looks to be far on one side of the hot/crazy matrix
I-45 and 1960, is near where I live. It is pretty much Mexico North.

Definitely a flight risk and definitely a danger to the community if let out on bail.
Non-citizens can get pistol permits?
Texas is Constitutional Carry.
If she has a Green Card, she can carry.
Saw it. She was firing into the car where a 2 year old was strapped in
That is some special kind of insane.
Ortiz and Greene should both be executed by lethal injection. Ortiz for being an illegal with a weapon, and Green for harboring an illegal alien criminal. Simple as that. /spit
It’s probably his.
Stupidity to the highest degree…she needs 15 years in the pen followed by deportation…he needs about 5…Navy vet???…stupid
Fast forward to today and Benjamin Greene simps for a crazy whackadoo who tried to murder a fleeing victim. Our lessors in government blame gun owners who need to protect themselves from these very people.
Nazly Ortiz needs to serve 20 years of hard labor and then be deported for life. Benjamin Greene needs to do 5-10 years for assault, aiding and abetting a dangerous whackjob intent on murder, and fleeing the scene of a crime. He knew she was a whackjob and still drove her about in public. If she used his firearm, he needs another 5 years tacked on.
Reopen the mental institutions and require sponsors for foreigners who will be accountable for the actions of those they sponsor.
