$23K in donations roll in for Somerset woman after being injured in 'road rage' incident

More than $23,000 in GoFundMe donations has been raised as of Monday afternoon to help pay the medical bills for a Somerset woman who was body-slammed to the pavement in what she described as a road-rage incident.

 

After striking another car in what Attleboro police called "a minor motor vehicle crash," police said Hailea Soares of Somerset was pulled from her car by the other vehicle's driver, and after a brief argument she was picked up and thrown to the road. She suffered several broken bones and head injuries.

 

"Hailea is the sole provider for her 2 small children, but these injuries will keep her out of work for months," reads a post on the GoFundMe page. "The financial strain of medical bills, therapy costs, and providing for her children is overwhelming. We are asking for your support to help Hailea focus on recovery without the added stress of financial hardship."
