Houston’s KHOU reports: A Houston couple were riding on Jefferson Street near the intersection with Hughes Street on Sunday [Houston’s Greater East End] when a man driving a Dodge Charger tried to run them over. The couple said the man was upset that they were riding bikes on the road.

“I jumped off the bike and … he was cursing at me, telling me I wasn’t supposed to be on the road,” the husband said.

The husband said he called 911 and the man in the Charger drove away, but returned a short time later and drove through a patch of grass, and struck his wife with the car. That’s when, according to police, the husband fired three shots at the driver.

“I saw the bike under (the car) and then I saw him reverse. My first instinct was to shoot him,” the husband said.

The driver was identified by police as 26-year-old Jose Angel Hernandez. He’s charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He was hospitalized with injuries to the left side of his face and shoulder.
