Older female Uber driver attacked in Vegas by a group of girls

Victoria Partridge is still recovering from the attack she endured last month while driving her ride-share.

A group of passengers threw a drink at her while she dropped them off from their Uber ride on June 19. They then assaulted her, stole her tip jar and cell phone, and damaged her car.

That car is the only source of income for her and her husband.

"We both now start thinking about relocating to some other state where to find a job," Partridge said. "For me, it's going to be easier than in Vegas."

Still suffering mentally and physically, she said she was grateful that some sense of justice was delivered Thursday, as one of the suspects pleaded guilty to a charge in juvenile justice court.

The judge handed down a sentence of nine months in juvenile detention, Partridge said.

"I still didn't get an answer," she said. "I really would like to hear the answer from at least one of these girls [as to] why, why they did it."
