A woman has been arrested and charged with running over her ex-boyfriend with a vehicle.
According to the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office, police were dispatched on Sunday to the residence of a man who said Elizabeth Reyes, 23, was there while he attempted to move out of the vicinity.
KETK reports that Reyes thought another woman had brought him to the place while he attempted to move out. She then “proceeded to run him over with the vehicle.”
Reyes was arrested, booked and detained at the Harrison County Jail. She is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and family violence. She is currently held on a $75,000 bond.
The news comes on the heels of a Shine My Crown report in which a 47-year-old woman who ran into her cheating boyfriend crushed and killed her former lover with her vehicle.
Jackline Sabana Bona Musa, who resides in Australia, was charged and found guilty of crushing Payman “Paul” Thagipur to death in her black Toyota Kluger after she discovered that he was cheating on her with another woman.
Musa met the 31-year-old man online in 2019. Court documents say she was under the impression that he was her boyfriend.
Documents show that the convicted killer sent texts to Thagipur on June 21 but he never responded. A week later, she sent another text which was left unanswered.
She then decided to visit the victim’s apartment and a local bar he frequented, but could not find him. She then returned to his apartment but couldn’t get in, so she followed another car into the parking lot, hitting the roller door, which caused it to break.
When she finally got to his apartment and knocked on the door, she found him in his underwear with another woman inside.
“Is it your turn today?” Musa asked Thagipur before spitting in his face, the jury was told during the trial.
Moments later, the man left his apartment with a t-shirt and pants on and proceeded to walk to his car. When she saw him, she deliberately ran into him, pushing him into a wall where he was crushed to death, according to court documents.
She then got out of her car, walked over to him and looked down at him for one whole minute while he was “gasping for air.” She then called police.
Musa’s “distinct lack of urgency” belied an obvious “callousness,” said lead prosecutor Sean Hughes.
“It was a long minute – because it was a minute – before she called [the police], wherein she lied about how the current circumstances came to be,” he continued. “A minute is a long time.”
Hughes further added that Musa “never accepted responsibility” for the murder and didn’t “feel anything remotely approaching remorse.”
She pleaded not guilty to murder and manslaughter but was found guilty in December.
“It is an extreme case of domestic violence,” Hughes said.
