A 46-year-old man at a Palm Beach County, Fla., wedding is charged with running over two other guests after being asked to leave for angry, drunken behavior, authorities said. After yelling threats, the man drove toward two women, hitting and injuring the mother of the bride, police said. He backed up and drove forward again, authorities said, plowing into the single mother of a 7-year-old. After backing up again, police said he plowed into her for a second time, stopping with his tire still on her body.

Reports say other wedding guests overtook the vehicle and pushed it off the woman. She was airlifted to the hospital but died before arriving. The mother of the bride was taken to the hospital with injuries. Authorities say the man has been charged with second-degree murder, attempted sec0nd-degree murder and two counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
