I had the girl that is pregnant with his baby in my vehicle. He was waiting when I pulled into drop her off at her vehicle. I stopped halway into the parking spot when I saw him. He starting walking towards my vehicle and yelled something I packed up and tried to get out of there. He jumped on my vehicle while I was trying to get away from him. I went forward and slammed on brakes which threw him into the ground Infront of the vehicle. I backed up and tried to go around him in which he got up and then tried to get Infront of my vehicle again. I left the scene then took the girl to where she said she fealt safe and then came back once the cops showed up and he filed for aggravated assault.
