Man Runs Over Girlfriend For Attending Carnival Without His Consent

A Las Vegas man was accused of attempted murder for allegedly driving over his girlfriend after she went to the Electric Daisy Carnival without his consent. The incident took place on May 21 when Ryan Mansour, 20, found out his girlfriend went to the festival.

Mansour told police that he left work and went to speak to his girlfriend after he found pictures of her at the festival on Instagram. According to the police report, Mansour headed to her northwest valley home to retrieve the items he had given her through the years as he thought she didn't deserve keeping them with her anymore.

The woman returned Mansour's bears and letters but stomped on the flowers he had gotten a day earlier. The 20-year-old then told police that they got involved in a verbal argument in a nearby parking lot, located in the 6700 block of West Alexander Road.

Mansour said the situation escalated before he lost sight of her while attempting to leave the lot in his car. However, he later heard a woman yelling to stop the vehicle. Mansour said he didn't realize that he ran over his girlfriend.

Two bystanders tried to free the woman trapped underneath the car as her face was near the exhaust and getting burned, the police report said. The woman was eventually freed and rushed to the hospital where doctors said she was in critical condition, local media reported.

Police said Mansour's statements of how it initially happened were inconsistent. Later, the suspect said the incident was an act of rage and he made a mistake due to his state of mind but had no intention of hurting his girlfriend.

The victim, who has not been named, suffered a broken leg, broken arm, broken pelvis, a lacerated liver, and a collapsed lung. She told police the two were in a bad argument but was unsure if he had intentionally driven over her.

Mansour was held at the Clark County Detention Center on $25,000 bail.
