Morgan Scott was also left with a broken leg and rib and had her liver amputated after Vincent Jean allegedly cut her hair three times in Elizabeth, New Jersey on Tuesday.
Jean, 56, was arrested after his Mitsubishi SUV was caught on camera hitting Scott several times. He is accused of attempted first-degree murder and assault with a third-degree automatic.
Scott’s family has since set up a GoFundMe for her medical expenses after they said her insurance company refused to cover them because they were “intentionally caused”.
Her father, Ian, wrote on Instagram on Saturday: “Recently my daughter suffered a horrible attack in her life, but God was merciful and saved my daughter from death.”
“Thank you for your love and support that God heals is good! God is good!!!!!’
He also warned that fraudsters had created several fake GoFundMe accounts in his daughter’s name.

The Scott family said they were devastated by the “savage” attack and added that “it was not the result of any domestic dispute”.
On the official GoFundMe page, the family writes: “Morgan miraculously survived her terrible ordeal. However, she has three fractures in her neck.
“A broken femur, a torn liver, broken ribs, serious back injuries, deep cracks over 60 percent of her body and serious injuries, rashes on the road.
“Then, to add insult to injury, the insurance company informed her father that they could not pay her medical expenses because her injuries were not from an accident.
Shocking footage showed the SUV blocking a road before accelerating over the sidewalk as the victim left terrified.

“Morgan is incapacitated in a trauma center. additional surgery will be needed and her recovery / rehabilitation will be long and painful.
“We are running a fundraising campaign to raise $ 100,000 to offset the cost of Morgan’s medical expenses, so I urge all generous, compassionate people.”
Shocked spectators today said how the SUV leveled it after a crash up the road in Elizabeth, New Jersey.
Isaac, a witness who did not want to be named, said he “should never have survived” the horrific ordeal.
He and his wife, a retired nurse, ran to help the victim and said she whispered “thank you” when they put a blanket over her.
Isaac, who watched the attack unfold from his house across the street, said the woman was battling a broken spine and a severed liver in hospital.
He told DailyMail.com: “I went out and saw the school bus stop. People were running and screaming and it was just crazy.
The 23-year-old has a long way to go before she recovers and her family is appealing for help with medical expenses after insurers refused to pay – saying her attack was “deliberate”.

“I saw that the lady was lying on the grass opposite. I looked at this woman and she was just awful.
“We got a blanket, as the grass was still wet, and I asked my wife – who was a nurse – if she was alive.
“He said his wife said ‘thank you’ when she went over it. Every time I watch the video it makes me feel sick.
“The last time they shook her, she looked completely out of the ground. He should never have survived. “
It comes after DailyMail.com revealed that Jean, from Irvington, had shared some videos from Grand Theft Auto on his social media.

The late-night posts for a number of years came before the savage attack on Scott.
Shocking footage showed the SUV crashing off the road before accelerating over the sidewalk as Scott left terrified.
But the vehicle overtook her easily and disappeared from sight as only her screams could be heard.
The car cut her hair and she continued to drive with her down in the front garden of a stranger.
Then Jean reversed and Scott appeared on the grass for a while, not moving.
He then revamped his engine and launched another savage attack on it – despite the fact that his victim was immobile.
The spectators, including the cameraman, shouted “stop, stop”, but the driver continued to drive over her.
She honked as she did it a second time over her before finally stopping.
Scott lay on the ground, and witnesses shouted, “Yes, what do you say?” What the fuck? “
He was rushed to hospital in critical condition after at least one operation.
The suspect fled the scene, but Jean was later arrested and charged with attempted first-degree murder and third-degree assault with a car, prosecutors said.
The attack allegedly started when the couple got into an argument over a small car accident up the road.
The driver allegedly tried to flee, but Scott pulled out a camera and began taking pictures of his vehicle and following him down the road.
Scott’s family said: “The family would like to express their gratitude for the appropriate response to this incident from the Union County Attorney’s Office, the Elizabeth Police Department, the EMS staff and the Mayor Elizabeth, Chris Bolwitz.
“We also want to thank Elizabeth’s citizens for their help and support, especially the school bus driver who intervened and the neighbor who provided the video from the security camera of this horrific crime.
“Your actions and your cooperation with the law enforcement authorities led to the quick arrest of the perpetrator.
“These collective efforts, together with the hard and diligent actions of the doctors and health professionals at the University Hospital, saved our daughter’s life.
Shocked spectators said today how the SUV leveled it after a bent wing over the road in Elizabeth, New Jersey.
“What this man did to our daughter was horrible and no parent, child or human being should ever bear it.
“We want to make it clear that this was not the result of any internal conflict.
“This man was a complete stranger who committed a heinous act of rage and tried to kill our daughter simply because he was trying to get the necessary information to legally report an accident while he was leaving the scene.
“Although we are devastated and deeply saddened by what has happened, we are grateful that our daughter is alive.
“We are now focused on her care and recovery and will rely on law enforcement professionals and the judiciary to administer justice.
“We appreciate the outpouring of love and support, but we urge you to respect our family privacy during this time.”
County Attorney William Daniel said: “At that point, the suspect drove his car directly to the victim and started running on the grass to avoid being hit.
“The suspect drove to the grass and hit the victim, then drove over him before turning back and deliberately popping him a second time.”
Jean is being held in Union County Jail pending pre-trial detention.
