VIDEO: A 78-year-old Jewish woman was assaulted and robbed by her car service driver. The driver fled the scene instantly.
The incident occurred at the intersection of Flatbush East 34 and Flatlands Avenue In Flatbush earlier today.
The individual capturing the video was transported to the hospital with what were considered to be minor injuries, including a swollen leg.
