A first date went wrong when a 32-year-old Houston woman allegedly plowed her Porsche car into a man, killing him.
The New York Post reports that Kristina Chambers was seen driving her vehicle toward the man in a video of the event.
She struck Joe McMullin, 33, causing him to go flying approximately 30 feet into the air before falling back to the Earth. The car then crashed into a pole. This happened at approximately 2:30 AM on April 19, according to police.
Chambers was driving her vehicle so fast that she lost control and struck McMullin. He had just left Voodoo Doughnut shop with his date when he was hit and killed.
His date, Briana Iturrinosaid: We had gone to karaoke at AvantGarden. When we got out, the taco truck was closed, but he knew Voodoo would be open.
She also noted: He asked if I wanted to take my car. I said, Well, its not that far. We can walk. Fresh air.
Iturrino said they were walking along the sidewalk when she rapidly saw the sports car barreling toward them. I felt something graze my hip. I dont know whether it was the car grazing my hip or Joes foot as he flew by. Immediately, I was like, Wheres Joe? She narrated.
This horrific event left her date dead, and Chambers was charged.
Iturrino told KHOU the following: He was so sweet. He smiled throughout the entire date. He was funny, good taste in music. He didnt deserve to go like that.
Chambers and her two passengers were injured in the accident. She was charged with intoxicated manslaughter, and her blood alcohol content was nearly four times the legal limit, according to court records obtained by the Houston Chronicle. There was a lot of alcohol in her system, said Kelly Marshall, a Harris County District Attorneys prosecutor.
