Woman 'runs over boyfriend' because he refused to stop at McDonalds
Crystal Brooks allegedly hit her boyfriend three times with his pickup after disagreeing with his choice of fast food restaurant
A woman was arrested after running over her boyfriend - because he refused to go to McDonalds with her.
Crystal Greer Brooks is alleged to have hit her other half three times with a pickup truck following the row in Kingsport, Tennessee.
Police were called to the scene of the collision shortly after midnight, the Kingsport-Times News reported, where they found 33-year-old Brooks' partner with cuts to his arms and back.
His clothing was also torn, "consistent with being dragged on the pavement".
Witnesses told police that Brooks, her boyfriend and a friend had been drinking on a night out when they decided to get something to eat.
But Brooks allegedly disagreed with the choice of restaurant, with one witness saying she "was mad they didn't stop at McDonalds".
She demanded her boyfriend pull over at the side of the road, but as he got out of the vehicle she got behind the wheel and then allegedly drove forward, knocking her boyfriend to the ground.
Witness statements claim she then accelerated twice more, hitting him again.
Brooks denied hitting the man, saying he had jumped on to the car bonnet, but she was arrested and charged with aggravated assault.
Her boyfriend, who is also the father of Brooks' child, was taken to a friend's house and given a domestic violence form.
