Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, the light-heavyweight mixed martial artist who recently lost his title in the Ultimate Fighting Championship, injured a Huntington Beach woman and may have injured her unborn child when he drove down along the 55 freeway median, authorities and the woman said Wednesday.
The woman, 38-year-old Holli Griggs, was driving her 2007 Cadillac Escalade in the left lane Tuesday on the southbound 55 freeway just south of Bay Street when Jackson’s gray and green monster truck sideswiped her as it continued down the freeway at 45 mph, California Highway Patrol officer Jennifer Hink said. The freeway turns into Newport Boulevard just south of there and is typically clogged with traffic at about the time of the accident, 1:30 p.m. Jackson could face felony charges of a hit and run because Griggs was taken to the hospital for minor injuries, Hink said. In an e-mail sent to the Daily Pilot, Griggs said she and her unborn baby, 16 and a half weeks along, sustained unknown injuries.
