A woman may be rethinking her route through the city of Chicago after she says a pack of teens smashed up her car while she was stopped at a red light.

Susan Pedersen says her two children were covered in broken glass after “several dozen young people” converged on her car near the University of Chicago campus.

“They were walking around both sides of the vehicle – in the front, in the back – and as they were walking across, they were hitting my car, using racial slurs and telling me that I didn’t belong in their neighborhood because I was white,” Pedersen tells ABC 7.

The mother says the group was comprised of black youth and they “kicked the vehicle and shook it violently.”

Her children were in the back seat “screaming.”

In incident, which occurred at the corner of 60th and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive at round 9 p.m. — still during daylight — was just blocks from President Obama’s Chicago home.

Pedersen says one of the assailants was on a bicycle and the group “used it as a battering ram.”

The bike broke the back window, sending shards of glass into the seat and on her three-year-old son. He was left with cuts from the glass.

Police say a squad car was nearby and when it arrived, “the group scattered.”

Two of the alleged attackers were arrested for “misdemeanor criminal damage to property.”

Though Pedersen appears to have been targeted because of her race, there has been no talk of hate crime charges.

“This is something that’s going to stay with me for the rest of my life,” the mother-of-two says.
