He was seen on video from Sunday stomping twice on Nikki Bullock's back windshield. The 23-year-old mother then exits her car and the biker is seen pulling out a gun on Bullock. He then headbutts her with his helmet. Bullock reacted by pushing the biker and his motorcycle down.
"So I jumped out and I was going at him and I ended up pushing his bike over and everybody starts surrounding me," Bullock told CBS News Philadelphia's Marcella Baietto.
This all happened while Bullock's two children were sitting in the backseat.
"The kids were screaming. Like it was insane," said Bullock, who lives in Prospect Park.
Video from a tourist on a double-decker sightseeing bus went viral and police said the video was being used in their investigation.
