The incident happened Oct. 8. Officers say Perry first went to the woman’s car and cursed her out.

“I believe she tried to dial 911, which caused her to miss an additional light cycle,” said Officer Jeffrey Ross with the Alpharetta Police Department.

Police say that’s when Perry went back to her car and punched her in the face, causing her nose to bleed.

Police say p=Perry hit another car as he drove away. He now faces several charges, including two counts of hit and run.

“Criminal trespass for kicking the vehicle. And the battery charge for striking the victim and leaving physical injury,” Ross said.
