Chilling video shows violent attack on woman at L.A. Metro station
WARNING: Images and video contain graphic violence
Chilling video of a brutally violent attack on a woman at an Los Angeles Metro station in Pasadena shows the terrifying moments a man beat, punched and stomped her and tried to throw her into oncoming traffic on the 210 Freeway.
The Aug. 7 incident occurred at around 5:30 a.m. at the Allen Metro station along the Metro A Line.
Footage of the incident obtained by KTLA, which is disturbing and difficult to watch, shows the victim repeatedly being dragged into the carpool lane of the busy 210 freeway as cars whiz seemingly within inches of running her over and she fights to survive.
Investigators with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department believe the attack was random, resulting from a chance encounter with the suspect, now identified as 33-year-old Juan Pablo.
The 33-year-old, who was arrested shortly after the attack, has since been charged by the L.A. County District Attorney’s Office with felony attempted murder and felony mayhem.
He is being held on $2,000,000 bail.

The victim, who narrowly escaped with her life, may now suffer “long-term disfigurement, and has had to return to the hospital due to infections with her injuries, including broken bones, bruises and deep lacerations requiring stitches, according to LASD.
The incident, say some Metro riders, serves as a stark reminder of the violence that has plagued public transit in Southern California, particularly in Los Angeles.
Nandi Hughes, a young mother who depends on the train to get to and from her job as an in-home caretaker, said she feels safe most of the time, but that she stays vigilant.
“Always looking left and right, paying attention to what’s going on,” she told KTLA’s Chris Wolfe.
Another Metro rider, Dana Terrance, told KTLA that she feels safe enough on public transit, but avoids using it later in the night.
“I don’t have a car, so it’s my only means of transportation,” she explained. “I don’t go on the Metro past 10 p.m.”
Local leaders say they are working on increased safety measures for public transportation in L.A., namely with a heavier law enforcement presence and the possibility of Metro creating its own police force.
As for Flores, if convicted as charged, he could face life in prison.
A man was arrested for attempted murder after an argument led to gunfire at a San Bernardino County grocery store Thursday.
The suspect was identified as William Timoteo Moller, 37, an Apple Valley resident, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.
The incident occurred at a Stater Bros. market on the 21600 block of Bear Valley Road in Apple Valley shortly before 2 p.m.
Deputies responded to an altercation in which Moller reportedly pulled out a handgun and fired at another person. The suspect was arguing with another shopper, an unidentified 37-year-old man, when a handgun was brought out and one round was fired.
No one was injured during the incident, authorities said. The heated altercation prompted employees to evacuate the supermarket.
A 6-year-old boy was also at the scene when the confrontation took place.
Moller was arrested and booked into the High Desert Detention Center on charges of attempted murder. He is being held on $2 million bail.
The incident remains under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call Deputy K. Mullins with Apple Valley Police at 760-240-7400, or dispatch at 760-956-5001.
