Intense Car Chase by Zoey Crummey

In New Mexico, a woman was pulled over for going 71 in a 55 mile per hour speed zone. She had five children in her car.The woman pulled over proceeded to argue with the officer, and then drove away while he was checking paperwork. Immediately the officer pursued her and she was pulled over again. The lady refused to get out of her car, and the officer tried to force her out, causing chaos in the backseat among her children. Matters continued to escalate when the officer began to beat the windows out of her car as she drive away, and to top it all off a different officer shot at the back of her van even though there were children inside. 

I think that this whole situation is completely ridiculous and very dangerous. The woman should have avoided all of this trouble and simply taken the speeding ticket. She is now facing much more serious convictions. I think that the officer should have thought more carefully about his actions before he began shooting, though. I don't know the law and how it all works, but the fact that there were five innocent children being shot at is scary.

  1. Truthfully it seems like she is guilty for something more than just a speeding ticket...

  2. She should definitely go to jail for her actions, but that officer should get in big trouble for shooting at her kids.

  3. This is insane on both parts, the woman should be driving normally, and if need to, pull over. That officer should've gotten her license plate and everything and just ticketed her rather than shooting/vandalizing.
