Gun-Toting Bride Arrested…Before She Could Even Change Clothes!

“First check her brain to see if she’s sane, deranged or strange or crazy as hell.” Obviously one new husband never heard Beyonce’s song, ‘Hip Hop Star,’ because his new wife is a dead-ringer! Police say 25-year-old newlywed Kate Elizabeth Prichard was still in her wedding dress when she was put in handcuffs.

Police had gotten an unusual call from the Clarion Inn. When they got to the hotel, they say both the husband and wife had a bit too much to drink and were uncooperative. But it was witnesses who told them what went down. They said an argument between the two had ensued and Prichard reached into her dress, pulled out a 9mm gun, pointed it at her husband’s head and pulled the trigger.

But the gun wasn’t loaded…at first.

She fixed that.

Sgt. Kyle Evans with the Murfreesboro Police Department said “Responding officers let the husband know the honeymoon was over and his new wife was going to jail,” after she ended up putting a round into the empty gun and then firing it into the air; sending hotel guests running for cover.

Police released a photo of the gun she allegedly fired in the air.

“After the incident, she went to the bathroom and disposed of the weapon hiding it in the bathroom,” said Evans.

Prichard was charged with aggravated domestic assault, and could have other charges brought against her. She posted a $15,000 bond. Police will sent the case to the Grand Jury.

Now for the ‘elephant in the room’ question. Why oh why did this piece of work have a gun under her dress in the first place?

SMH.
