Cejudo told TMZ Sports on Monday that the car went into the air after hitting one of his neighbor’s sprinkler systems…and crashed one of his other neighbor’s homes.
He stated that after it was rested some of the men in the vehicle took a break for it… but he didn’t stop them as he was worried that they might be “armed and dangerous.” He told us, one of them stood up to them and he intervened.
Sejude grabbed the man, threw it to the ground, placed his hand behind his back and said, “I slapped him a bit.” He said that if he hadn’t done what he did, he should thank him for all of it as well – his neighbor would have killed the man.
Sejude says that two of his neighbors had guns on their people and they were ready to shoot. In fact, at one point he says that one of his neighbors tilted their firearms and cried out.
“If I hadn’t been there, this child would have died,” Sejude said.
The suspect – later agreed by police as 22-year-old angel Kota – was eventually taken into custody and booked on several charges, including DUI and assault.
“Fortunately, no one was injured,” Sejude told us. “I hope this child learns his lessons, and I think the best way to learn your lessons is to take time. And really get a grasp of who you are and what you want in life.”
