BOURBON, Mo. (KTVI) – A Missouri mother is recovering from brain damage after a roadside attack that police said stemmed from a road rage incident.
Surveillance video obtained by sister station KTVI shows a driver following a woman’s car for about 4 miles on a highway near Bourbon, Missouri.
What happened next almost killed Jamie Peters, a young, thriving, and energetic mother of three, as seen in pictures before the attack. (Snip) Peters was on her way to work the morning of Aug. 17 when something happened that led to another driver chasing her.
“He followed her about 4 1/2 to five miles down the road, back all the way into town,” Oldham said. “Everybody’s asked me ‘Why did Jamie stop?’ We don’t really know why she stopped. The particular place she pulled in at is right in the middle of town, and we just assume that maybe she felt like she was safe and that she could confront the person that was following her.”
An eyewitness who did not want to be identified told KTVI, “I got up at 7:30 a.m. I heard someone screaming outside — yelling, you know — so I opened up the door and she said something to him, and he did a roundhouse on her — complete around and she flew through the air 15 feet.”
Peters fell and hit her head. The witness said he identified the man to the police.

what did she do to get this kind of attention
Its a reference to the Rittenhouse trial, I guess.
“Everybody takes a beating sometimes, right?” - James Kraus (prosecution), closing arguments.
That's not him. The suspect is the white guy pictured above, as a google search quickly and repeatedly confirms.
Yeah, it’s probably something like that. Didn’t quite work in this context.
"One Punch, Brain Damage."
I have nothing but a white hot hatred for that corrupt, lying tub of goo.
Can be a type of punch as well.
Police will tell you intervening in domestic disputes is one of the most dangerous things they do. You’re not unlikely to end up with both disputants attacking YOU!
Plenty of people have been killed with a single punch.
Just do a search on single punch deaths.
Half of zero is still zero.
He is mocking the idiot prosecutor in the Rittenhouse trial who told the jury everybody takes a beating sometime. He is an idiot.
I figured such, it just didn’t work very well in this context. Maybe the OP should have added it as a comment, instead of inserting it in the title.
I would have shot the dude. If it had been my wife, she would have shot the dude.
Yes, but a roundhouse kick is more likely to account for the flying 15 feet as described by the witness. Apparently the guy was 6’5” so that might also account for the distance.
Sumbitch should be hung.
Yeah, it seems like there was some “Speak up” media campaign at the time. Didn’t work out too well in that instance.
“What kind of asshole writes that?”
He was making a reference to the preposterous statement the prosecutor made in the Rittenhouse trial.
Well my sources are images.....and they list several faces for this guy.
“Plenty of people have been killed with a single punch.”
Knew a guy who punched a guy. The punched guy, fell, hit his head on the curb, died.
My friend did 10 years in Attica. True story.
Yeah, and I said the OP should have put it in a comment, not added it to the title. I see the title has been fixed now.
