Suspect named, charged after thug biker stomps, smashes car's rear window — with kids, 2 and 5, in back seat — points gun at mom, head-butts her

A suspect has been named and charged after a viral video caught a biker stomping and smashing a car's rear window while kids, ages 2 and 5, were in the back seat — and then pointing gun at their mother and head-butting her.

Philadelphia police on Wednesday morning announced an arrest but didn't name the suspect at the time.

What are the details?

Cody Heron, 26, is charged with possession of an instrument of crime, recklessly endangering another person, and multiple counts of aggravated assault in connection with Sunday's incident, the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office said.

The DA's office said "Heron ran into the driver’s side door of the complainant’s vehicle while traveling with a large group of motorcycle riders through Center City" after which video depicts "the defendant dismounting from his motorcycle and jumping onto the back of the victim’s car. Heron then kicks in the back window, spraying shattered glass all over the victim’s two children, ages two and five, who were seated in the back seat. A firearm can be seen falling from the defendant’s waistband before he retrieves the weapon and threatens the victim with it after she confronts him on the street. Heron head butts her during the confrontation before returning to his vehicle and fleeing the scene."

NBC News reported that it wasn't immediately clear Wednesday whether Heron had an attorney who could speak on his behalf, and Heron’s relatives could not be reached for comment.

What's the background?

Nikki Bullock, the mother in question, spoke to WCAU-TV about the ordeal, which took place around 8:45 p.m.

Bullock told the station she was delivering food with her girlfriend and their two children when the assailant — who was riding with large group of bikers — hit her car.

"They’re not paying attention to lanes. They’re just doing whatever. So I’m turning in the lane, and he just hits the side of the car," Bullock told WCAU, adding that she argued with the biker afterward.

She noted to the station the biker at that point took things to another level, hopping up on her car's back bumper and stomping on the rear window before jumping high and smashing through the window with both feet. Video shows the biker getting down to the street while dropping what appears to be a gun.

As the biker picks it up, the mom exits the car to confront the biker — who responds by pointing a gun at her.

"It was just, like, it was a little gun, and at that point, my windshield was already broken — so, what was he really going to do to me, for real?" Bullock asked the station.

She continued trying to get in the biker's face, and the biker — who was wearing a helmet — head-butted her and shoved her.

Well, Bullock still wasn't about to back down, and video shows her shoving the biker back — and he falls sideways along with his two-wheeled ride.

Bullock added to WCAU that her kids are all right and "there's not a scratch on them."

Video shows her with at least one child in her arms walking away from the scene.

'It’s just out of control'

George Coloney of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, told the station he was on a double-decker tour bus when the incident unfolded in front of him.

“I just started filming a video of all the bikers when next thing you know this guy hops off and jumps on this lady’s car,” Coloney told WCAU.

He added to the station that one of the bikers hit the mirror of Bullock's vehicle, which led to the confrontation.

“For him to take it that far, it’s just out of control,” Coloney noted to WCAU. “To the point where many people could’ve died in an instant.”

Coloney added to the station that no one intervened to stop the biker, and police arrived after the biker took off.
