Cody Heron, 26, of Frankford, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States was with a group of all-terrain vehicles (ATV) and dirt bike riders in the area of Philadelphia’s city hall on the evening of October 1, 2023. He and Nikki Bullock, 23, of Prospect Park, Delaware County, Pennsylvania did not know each other before their encounter that night.
At around 9:40 p.m., Heron allegedly sideswiped Bullock. That night, she was driving a sedan and making deliveries for UberEats with her girlfriend, their daughter, 5, and their son, 2, in the car.
When Bullock confronted Heron, he picked up a black handgun that had fallen from his waistband and pointed it at her. He headbutted and pushed her but did not fire the gun.
While wearing a helmet, Heron was caught on camera using his feet to smash Bullock’s rear windshield while her two children were riding in the back seat. The window was shattered but the children were not harmed.
After the confrontation, Heron took off and left the area with a group of other bikers. He went by the alias John Carroll on social media, which misled investigators.
On October 3, 2023, Heron was arrested at his residence in Frankford. He was charged with possession of an instrument of crime, recklessly endangering another person and multiple counts of aggravated assault.
