Angered by the man’s actions, the woman said she flagged down a motorist and they chased after the man.
“He smacked me from behind, and I saw him smile, like he’s smiling, and he just took off and I tried to catch him,” the woman told. “I couldn’t catch him, and then I found a guy in a car and I asked the guy if he could help me chase the guy, and he helped me.”The woman was able to subdue the man with a chokehold until authorities arrived,“Once I saw him try to cross the street, I just jumped on him,” she told the television station. “It’s scary, now.
“I don’t feel, like, safe going out by myself, but eventually I’ll get back for my runs. I know I can defend myself, and hopefully that will never happen again to me or anyone else.”
