A young woman who allegedly assaulted her Uber driver with pepper spray in Midtown this week said she did it because of his skin color, the driver claimed to The Post Saturday.
“Her friend, she is yelling, ‘Jen, Jen, what the f–k, what are you doing? What’s going on?’” driver Shohel Mahmud recalled of the Wednesday attack. “Her friend is asking ‘Why did you do that?’ And she say, ‘He’s brown.’”
Jennifer Guilbeault, 23, was riding in the backseat with another woman at Lexington Avenue and East 66th Street around 11:30 p.m. when she suddenly sprayed the 45-year-old driver in the eyes with the noxious substance, video that circulated on Reddit, Instagram and YouTube showed.
