Baton Rouge woman accused of trying to run over ex-boyfriend's girlfriend

BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — A Baton Rouge woman faces serious charges after allegedly attempting to run over her ex-boyfriend's girlfriend during a heated confrontation. On Dec. 18, 2024, Baton Rouge Police Department (BRPD) officers responded to an assault and battery call at a gas station on S. Sherwood Forest Boulevard. Upon arrival, officers spoke with two victims involved in the incident. According to the affidavit, the victims were getting gas when Bri'Antai Morgan, 25, pulled up at a nearby pump and began yelling at them. Police said Morgan is the mother of a child she shares with the man dating one of the victims. A verbal altercation ensued, prompting the store clerk to ask Morgan to leave the property. Instead of leaving, Morgan reportedly entered her vehicle, accelerated toward the first victim, and narrowly missed hitting her. The second victim intervened, pushing the first victim out of the way but was struck in the leg by Morgan's car. Police said Morgan fled the scene before officers arrived. The second victim sustained minor injuries. The affidavit further states that Morgan later called her child's father to 'brag about almost running over his girlfriend' and allegedly posted about the incident on social media, taunting the victim. Morgan was arrested on Feb. 4 and booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison. She is charged with attempted second-degree murder, aggravated battery, and aggravated criminal damage to property. Jail records indicate no bond has been set.
