An Arizona mom was arrested last week after maniacally driving her truck through a park where she threatened to kill a bunch of kids who were apparently bullying her children. She brought her own kids with her.
Brandie Gotch, 30, “got into an altercation with multiple juveniles and went on a rampage after taking her four kids to their neighborhood park,” KTAR reports.
She grabbed a 14-year-old boy by the hair and jerked his head around while yelling at him. Then, apparently she “grabbed a sharp stick from her truck and ran after the boy, yelling, ‘I am going to kill you and run you over!'” WEAU reports. This doesn’t look too good because the report also says she ran a kid over (a different kid). She told police she wasn’t aware that happened.
When one of the teenage boys called Gotch a b*tch, she got back in her truck and sped around the park at high speeds, causing about 15 children to run for their lives.
Gotch said the whole thing happened because her kids were getting bullied, including her 10-year-old daughter, who she said was punched in the face by an older kid.
According to court documents obtained by Fox 10, “Brandie continued by stating her children are being bullied at school and have had issues with this group of kids before and reported it to the school and police but nothing has been done,” which kind of puts her actions in perspective, don’t you think?
Gotch was arrested the same day on charges of attempted first degree murder, child endangerment and aggravated assault, among others.
She did tell police that at least her kids were wearing their seatbelts, but her kids actually told the cops they weren’t.
