St. AUGUSTINE, Fla. -- A woman ran over two teenage brothers after they accidentally hit her sport utility vehicle with the golf ball they were bouncing in a parking lot, officials said, leaving one of the boys with life-threatening injuries.
Isiah Grayer, 14, and his 16-year-old twin stepbrothers, Justin and Jamel Marshman, were bouncing the golf ball in a shopping center parking lot Sunday afternoon when it went astray and struck a sport utility vehicle driven by Kathy Feaganes Allen, 47, St. Johns County sheriff's Deputy Greg Suchy said.
Suchy said no damage was done, and the boys apologized and began to walk away. Allen started to drive away, but suddenly made a U-turn, ran over a median and struck Grayer, causing severe injuries, and Justin Marshman before knocking over a light pole, Suchy said.
She then drove after Jamel Marshman, crossing two medians and striking a utility box before her SUV stopped in a ditch, Suchy said. The boy ran away and was not struck.
Witness Russell McPhee said Allen accelerated to hit the boys.
"She charged them," he said. "This was the most deliberate act."
But what she did is no different than getting out, pulling a handgun and shooting at them. And all that after they apologized and there was no damage. I would assume she's f'ed.

I blame video games for this. Not Grand Theft Auto for the lady's actions but rather Tiger Woods 2003 for giving kids the idea to golf. When will we learn that children and video games just don't mix.
I don't think I can do any of the above because of shear disbelief. I just can't believe that this kind of person was able to stay out of prison long enough so she could buy an SUV.
