Woman recovering after attack at red light in Lexington

A Lexington woman is recovering after being attacked while stopped at a red light.

Her sister is now turning to the community for help with medical expenses and to find the suspect.

“You try to make sense of these things as they happen, and you never can,” says Davis Dickens, the victim’s sister.

Davis will never forget the call she received from her sister, Kasey Dickens, on August 19th, just minutes after she was attacked through her car window at the intersection of South Limestone and Virginia Avenue.

“Kasey was driving home from work just a normal day, she had the window down. She pulls up to a red light, doesn’t think anything of it, starts to hear someone yelling and before she knew anything was happening, a man had grabbed her by the shoulder to pull her towards the front of the window and started punching her in the face, cursing at her, saying her vehicle had gotten too close to his,” Dickens said.

Kasey spent most of that night in the hospital with multiple facial fractures, a concussion, a broken nose, and damage to one of her eyes.
