Mother and two young children run over crossing the street
UPDATE: tragedy now ruled a murder/suicide
—————————————————–
A woman and her niece and nephew crossed a busy highway in Boston and were run over by two separate cars.
The whole situation is so bizarre. First, the woman had pulled over because she was driving on the wrong side of the road, and then proceeds to walk into traffic with the 4 and 5 year old. Makes me think that maybe alcohol was involved??
Poor babies. Their aunt should have made every possible attempt to keep them safe but instead, lead them to an agonizing death.
Marcelle Thibault, 39, of Bellingham, Mass., was driving in the wrong direction on the highway when she drove her 2003 Lincoln on to the grassy shoulder of the road, state police said. Thibault was traveling southbound in the northbound section of the road.
Thibault then got out of the car with the 4-year-old boy and 5-year-old girl who were traveling with her.
Police did not offer an explanation for what happened next.Thibault and the two children walked out into the middle of the road, police said, where they were hit by two cars. All three were taken to hospitals and pronounced dead.
UPDATE: The district attorney has ruled this case a murder/suicide.
