Joseph Harrell, Zy’Nika Ayesha Woods charged in Feb 13 body-slamming robbery attack on Nhung Truong
Two teens have been arrested and charged in connection to the caught-on-camera “jugging” of a Houston woman who was left paralyzed as a result of the violent robbery of cash that she had withdrawn from a bank.
The arrests of Joseph Harrell, 17, and Zy’Nika Ayesha Woods, 19, were announced at a press conference Friday, more than a month after Nhung Truong was brutalized the day before Valentine’s Day.
Harrell allegedly got out of the vehicle driven by Woods and assaulted the victim. The video shows how the 17-year-old first took Truong’s wallet and started to run away, but upon realizing that he didn’t have the money that Truong withdrew from the bank, he immediately turned around and tried to wrestle away the envelope of money that she was holding. Harrell then picked her up and slammed her down onto the concrete, causing severe injuries
