A woman was walking through a quiet neighborhood in Sugar Land, Texas, when a man approached her with a baseball bat. The assailant struck her repeatedly, causing bruises, scars and broken bones that required multiple days of hospitalization. Miraculously, the infant she carried was unharmed, escaping the violence without injury.
