Bride-to-be left with broken nose, teeth after brutal bachelorette attack: police
A bride-to-be’s bachelorette trip with lifelong friends was interrupted by a “horrifying attack” outside a bar one month before her wedding.
Canada Rinaldi, 27, had traveled to Dallas from Oklahoma with a group of six friends when she was attacked after leaving a nightclub shortly before 2 a.m. on March 22, the Dallas Police Department told Fox News Digital.
“So I remember walking toward the back of the car, and then I remember waking up in an ambulance,” Rinaldi told FOX 4 Dallas. “That’s all I remember.”

In the random attack, the 27-year-old’s nose was broken along with several teeth just one month before her nuptials. She received eight stitches to her face and has a concussion, among other injuries.
The nightmare end of the bachelorette weekend was caught on the dash camera of a rideshare driver. Footage following the attack showed Rinaldi on the ground and a man with a backpack running away.
“And so I saw this man walk up behind Canada, and he reached his arm out, and it kind of looked like he was going to take her cowgirl hat off of her head, but then immediately he just threw his arm back and punched her,” Brienna Rinaldi, the victim’s 23-year-old sister, told FOX 4 Dallas.
A 27-year-old man named Trevon Woodards was arrested on Friday for the attack, FOX 4 Dallas reported.
Woodards, who was recently granted parole, has a criminal history that includes previous charges of assaulting a police officer, misdemeanor assault and burglary, according to the outlet.

The women said that no confrontation ensued prior to the attack.

“I screamed at him. I said, ‘What’s wrong with you?’” Brienna Rinaldi said. “And then, once I saw Canada, I was just screaming her name, and I remember screaming, ‘My sister, my sister!’”

The Dallas Police Department told Fox News Digital that its officers were flagged down in the 2600 block of Floyd Street in the Texas city and that a preliminary investigation determined a person had assaulted two victims. Dallas Fire-Rescue was also called to the scene.
Canada’s fiancé’s aunt was also hurt in the attack. The bride-to-be was left with a black eye along with a broken nose and several teeth.

Jurors deliberating the fate of the man accused of starting the Palisades Fire, one of the most destructive wildfires in California’s history, failed to reach a verdict Thursday afternoon, telling the judge they were deadlocked.
A spokesperson from the United States Attorney’s Office told KTLA that jurors will continue to deliberate until they reach a verdict or give up.
Jonathan Rinderknecht, 30, a former Uber driver and one-time Pacific Palisades resident, is accused of starting the Lachman Fire on New Year’s Eve. The fire continued to smolder underground for about a week, even after Los Angeles firefighters believed it had been extinguished.
Flames reignited on Jan. 7, erupting into the deadly Palisades Fire that killed 12 people and destroyed thousands of homes in the upscale community, authorities said.

Prosecutors argued that Rinderknecht deliberately set the fire, claiming he had grown increasingly resentful of wealthy residents and viewed Pacific Palisades as a symbol of that frustration.
“Their case, though circumstantial, is strong,” KTLA legal analyst Alison Triessl said. “The defense is relying on, can they (prosecutors) show beyond a reasonable doubt that Mr. Rinderknecht actually started this fire and it wasn’t the result of fireworks or some intervening cause.”
The defense argued there is no direct physical evidence tying Rinderknecht to the fire and said the prosecution’s case relies entirely on circumstantial evidence. Rinderknecht did not testify during the trial.
Defense attorney Steve Haney spoke outside the courthouse Wednesday about why he believes it will be difficult for prosecutors to prove how the fire started.
“The lack of scene preservation. The fact that they got there after a lot of the evidence was missing. Not a lot of direct evidence. This is a circumstantial case, which is always difficult as a prosecutor to prove,” Haney said.
Rinderknecht, who was arrested and indicted last October, faces up to 45 years in prison if found guilty of three arson counts, including destruction of property by means of fire, arson affecting property used in interstate commerce and timber set afire.
