In Harrison County, Texas, a local man turned a roadside wreck into a family affair.
After deputies found him perched on the roof of an SUV submerged in a watery ditch, the damp suspect decided to trade his sinking ship for his wife's pickup truck.
Instead of calling for a tow, he allegedly ordered his better half to hit the gas and flee the scene.
The high-speed honeymoon, though, did not last long, as cops quickly intercepted the pair before they could just drive off into the sunset.
Now both are sharing a suite at the county jail, proving that when you order your spouse to be a getaway driver, your marriage is officially stuck in the mud.
Nancy.
Nancy, a routine play date in Alexandria, Louisiana, exploded into a scene of unthinkable violence when that 10-year-old boy allegedly pointed a handgun at his 9-year-old friend and pulled the trigger, leaving the child with life-altering internal carnage.
The shooting on Chester Street was initially written off by authorities as a tragic mishap between two children handling a firearm.
However, the narrative took a sharp, sinister turn when the victim, Trey Michael, had his breathing tube removed.
In his first moments of consciousness, the boy gasped out a bombshell accusation to his mom, Lakeisha Lagurgis.
She spoke to KALB News 5.
When the two first came out his mouth and he was able to talk, the first words was me, mama, mama.
He shot me.
The sheer force of the bullets shattered Trey Michael's intestines, forcing surgeons to perform a brutal triage that included removing his right kidney and half of his lung.
As of late January, the resilient survivor is back home, but his body remains a roadmap of the trauma he endured.
Lagurgis, who rushed to the hospital in a blind panic, has now since become a vocal advocate for gun safety, begging parents to take the guns away before another kid is mangled by unsecured weapons.
The 10-year-old suspect, whose name is shielded by juvenile law, was hauled off to the Renaissance Home for Youth after detectives determined the shooting was a calculated act of battery.
He faces charges of aggravated second-degree battery and juvenile possession of a handgun.
While the boy sits in detention, though, a major question remains.
How did a 10-year-old gain access to a loaded weapon?
