After the woman tooted her horn, it’s understood the driver of the Mitsubishi, who police described as having a “large build” and a tattoo on his left arm, got out of his car and allegedly punched the woman in the face.

The woman, however, was able to drive off before he could drag her from the car, police said.

She drove to Campbelltown Hospital but was transferred to Liverpool Hospital where she underwent surgery for multiple facial fractures.

“As I turn around, I just felt a blunt force hit my face,” the alleged victim said on TikTok.
