LOS ANGELES—Two men suspected of critically assaulting an elderly woman who was checking her baggage curbside at Los Angeles International Airport were taken into custody Friday, June 14.
Jasan Givens Sr. was taken into custody at Western Avenue and Florence avenues around 10:05 a.m. Friday and booked on suspicion of felony battery with bail set at $50,000, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Two men became involved in a fistfight outside the airport around 9:25 a.m. May 31 stemming from a road rage incident. During that fight, they knocked a woman described as an “elderly passenger” to the ground, knocking her unconscious, police said.
The woman was taken to a hospital in critical condition, but she has since recovered and was released from the hospital, police said.
Detectives identified one of the suspects as Mr. Givens.
Police said the second man suspected in the assault turned himself into law enforcement.
It was unclear what he was booked on, and investigators did not provide his name.
