Reality TV couple’s road-rage nightmare ends in arrest after suspect seen attacking car in Hollywood

A man accused of attacking the car of the duo behind “Gown and Out in Beverly Hills” has been arrested after the reality TV stars described the road-rage incident as one the most frightening of their lives.

The suspect, Kevin Hernandez, was taken into custody Wednesday on the 500 block of Melrose Avenue in connection with the wild confrontation, according to the LAPD. He was booked on felony vandalism charges.

The run-in occurred Sunday morning at the intersection of Melrose Avenue and Vine Street in Hollywood, where Pol Atteu and Patrik Simpson were stopped at a red light when driver abruptly pulled in front of their Mercedes-Benz and blocked their path.

Video they took of the incident shows the suspect exiting his SUV and approaching the couple’s vehicle before repeatedly striking the driver-side door and window.

“We’re grateful to law enforcement for taking swift action in this road-rage attack and for ensuring our safety by granting the order of protection,” Simpson told The Post.

“What happened that morning was extremely threatening and violent, and in the moment I truly feared for my life. No one should have to experience that kind of aggression simply driving through the streets of Hollywood.”

Atteu and Simpson said they were “trapped” and unable to escape as the suspect lashed out. They maintained they had no prior interaction with the driver and did nothing to provoke the incident. It remains unclear what set the suspect off.

The attack resulted in about $5,000 in damage, according to the police complaint.

The couple told The Post that a dealership later assessed the total damage at closer to $10,000, noting the vehicle was a loaner.

After the confrontation, the suspect allegedly fled the scene. The couple followed while calling 911, reporting his erratic driving that they said endangered others on the road.

“We appreciate the quick response from law enforcement and hope this serves as a reminder that violent road-rage behavior has serious consequences,” Atteu said.
