Former DOGE employee Edward Coristine, AKA “Big Balls”, appeared on Fox News’ Jesse Watters Primetime to talk about what happened to him the night he was beaten by a pack of teens in DC.
Last month, 19-year-old Edward Coristine was severely beaten in DC after he jumped into action to save his significant other’s life.
Trump posted a photo of Coristine after he was beaten bloody by the mob of teens. The President has since federalized DC to crack down on crime.
A police report revealed details about Edward Coristine’s heroic actions defending his girlfriend from a pack of 10 teens during an attempted carjacking.
Two 15-year-olds have been charged.
On Monday evening, Coristine appeared on Fox News with host Jesse Watters to talk about what happened the night he was ambushed and beaten by DC thugs.
“So what happened that night?” Jesse Watters asked Coristine.
“Yeah, I was just hanging out with a group of my friends late at night and at about 3 a.m. we were wrapping up, and I was walking one of my friends back to her car and as we’re walking to the car there’s a group of 10 guys right across the street. And as we get to the car and she begins to fumble for the keys, they start shouting at us, and really quickly I knew something was really off about the situation,” Coristine said.
“So she unlocks the car, I rush her into the driver’s seat, she’s able to close the door behind her and lock the doors and right as I turn around, they run up on me. They’re just a few feet away. And they slam me against the car. They start throwing a bunch of punches. I keep my hands up. just like, alright, I’m getting a lot of punches here,” he said.
“I’m just trying to protect my head the best way that I can. And luckily, the whole thing didn’t last too long. The police showed up pretty quickly,” he added.
“So I was very fortunate. I only came out with a broken nose and a concussion. It could have been a lot worse,” he said.
