Video from a witness appears to show the woman, later identified as Khan, pounding on the same Lamborghini she was thrown from just moments later.

Friends of Khan say the video was taken outside the Buckhead restaurant she worked at, accusing the driver of the Lamborghini of stealing her wallet. Her friends say the wallet was a family heirloom.
