Last week, Shirlene Hernandez was the victim of a violent assault while stopping at a gas pump in San Antonio, Texas. A young man hit her several times, before taking control of her vehicle and driving away.
Several people tried to intervene to help the grandmother, but were unable to prevent the escape of the individual, who left his victim bleeding.
A tragic accident
Moments later, the carjacker crashed and police found the vehicle on the side of the highway. The driver’s body was found dead and pronounced dead at the scene.
For Shirlene, there is no question here of invoking a question of karma: “It is often said that you reap what you sow, but I haven’t thought of that. I was really sad to learn of his passing. Yes, he hurt me, but the Lord saw fit to take him out of his misery. Now I just need to find a solution to replace my car, and that takes money. »
Shirlene’s granddaughter therefore created a GoFundMe page to allow her grandmother to buy a car. If the initial objective was $5,000, $28,000 have already been collected this Wednesday noon.
