Philadelphia Police Warrant Unit Helps Jenkintown PD Capture Road Rage Suspects

JENKINTOWN, PA — One of the two suspects arrested in connection with a recent road rage assault case in the borough goes by a version of the nickname 'Bad News' on Instagram, and he also owns a 2011 Dodge Challenger with a word that looks like that phrase as his state vanity vehicle registration plate, according to local media reports.

Patch reported on Wednesday that Jenkintown police arrested Charles Woodson, 37, and September Wingfield, 25, both of Philadelphia's Holmesburg neighborhood, in connection with a vicious beating of another motorist last week along Old York Road.

The suspects can be seen on video beating and stomping a female driver before she becomes unconscious. The beating took place both outside and inside of the victim's car.

Jenkintown police said that many tips poured in leading to the capture of the two suspects.

On Wednesday morning, Jenkintown officers, along with the help of Philadelphia Police detectives and members of the 8th District in the city arrested both Woodson and Wingfield at a home on the 8200 block of Frankford Avenue in Philadelphia following what police called an "extensive investigation that also included tips from the public."

Both Woodson and Wingfield were remanded to the Montgomery County Correctional Facility after failing to post $50,000 cash bail.

They face charges including aggravated assault, simple assault, recklessly endangering another person and other related offenses.

CBS 3 Philly cited police sources who said Woodson goes by a version of the nickname 'Bad News' on Instagram.

The news outlet said that Jenkintown Police received hundreds of tips that helped officers identify the attackers.
