Source: Noel Hendrickson / Getty Man Accidentally Runs Over His Own Wife On Valentine’s Day Valentine’s Day can be a point of contention for a lot of relationships–but for one couple in Pennsylvania, things turned out to be a lot worse than just not getting the right flowers or agreeing on where to go to dinner. One husband has been left stunned after the events of a tragic accident in the Lehigh Valley after police say that he ran over his wife. The fatal incident happened around 3 p.m. on Thursday, on the 1200 block of Anna Marie Street in Palmer Township, a township in Northampton County, Pennsylvania. This all happened when 66-year-old Terry Mitchell let his wife Debra out of the vehicle, according to reports from police. After leaving the vehicle, she then fell to the ground, possibly due to a medical issue, while walking toward the back of the car. Police go on to say that after she fell, Debra was out of view of her husband and Mitchell ended up running her over her as he reversed and backed out of the driveway. She was then pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators have since ruled this tragedy to be an accident.

Mom-shamers like to slam Kim Kardashian for posing nude , but she poses with a purpose, and usually with a professional photographer. Tragically, Kim’s photographer, Marcus Hyde, has been in a truly horrific car accident. Kim shared the news and is asking fans to pray for his recovery. On Tuesday, Kim Kardashian tweeted out the news about Marcus Hyde’s terrible accident. “Please pray for my friend @MarcusHyde,” Kim tweeted. She also included an image, appearing to show the two of them, with words imposed over it. “I’m trying to find the perfect picture but I don’t want to share them,” Kim writes. Kim explains her reluctance: “We were saving these for our book.” Clearly, she doesn’t want to signal that there’s no hope by sharing the photo. She’d rather believe he’ll recover. Her comments go on, now directly addressing Marcus. “Angels are surrounding you,” Kim writes. She continues: “I’m praying so hard for you.” “Please be ok,” she begs. Kim’s message concludes: “Please come back @marcushyde.” This is truly heartbreaking. Marcus Hyde is a photographer known for his work with tasteful, artistic nudity. He is especially famous for his work with Kim Kardashian and her sisters, including Khloe and Kendall. TMZ reports that Marcus’ terrible accident took place Monday morning, October 29. He was on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu when he apparently lost control of his vehicle. Marcus went over an embankment. From the looks of things, the Mercedes AMG CLS that he was driving has been totaled. He himself was airlifted to the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center. He had a female passenger in the vehicle at the time. TMZ reports that, per their sources, this unidentified woman was also hospitalized. We don’t know Marcus’ exact condition — but he reportedly suffered a critical head injury. Sources also say that Marcus Hyde was suffering seizures as a result of the crash and the head injury. That is devastatingly serious. Marcus has traveled the globe with Kim and with Kanye. He has been the man behind the camera for some of her most famous photos. He was also the photographer for the Kardashian (and Jenner) Calvin Klein photos late last year. This man’s artistic vision has been a part of Kim’s brand for a long time. Kim is clearly reeling from this news. It’s no wonder that she’s asking fans for prayers. As we mentioned, the fact that she’s unwilling to release photos of the two of them means that she’s clinging to hope. She wants Marcus to survive, recover, and then release that book with her. If she were to release a photo now, it would feel like she was giving up on him. We absolutely understand the way that she is thinking. We here at THG sincerely hope that Marcus Hyde and his passenger make a full and speedy recovery from this horrific ordeal. We also hope that his friends and loved ones — Kim included — can find comfort and hope while they wait for news. View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian Goes Nude, Gets Candid About Sex
(Photo by Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images) Uber Driver Wants Jameis Winston To Pay Up For Being A Pervy Passenger The female Uber driver who accused Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston of groping her during a ride in her vehicle, has filed a lawsuit against. According to ESPN , the unnamed driver is asking for $75,000 for damages in the nature of emotional distress and future therapy expenses.” The groping incident occured back in 2016, which ultimately led to his three-game suspension by the NFL. According to reports, the lawsuit alleges that while waiting in the drive-thru line of Los Betos restaurant in Scottsdale, Arizona, in March 2016, Winston was “belligerent” and “leaned toward [her] and placed his fingers between her legs and pressed them firmly against her vagina over her yoga pants.” She looked at Winston, down at his hand, and responded, “What’s up with that?” before Winston withdrew his hand, the suit says. She then immediately tried calling her boyfriend before sending him a series of text messages. In one of the texts, she wrote, “I just got semi-molested by the Tampa Bay Buc QB,” and that she was “pretty shaken up …” The woman did not file a report with police but had discussed it with her boyfriend. She did report the incident to Uber the next day. Uber contacted Winston, who told the ride-share service that there were other passengers in the vehicle that night. In the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona, the plaintiff, identified as “Kate P.”, states that despite Winston’s three-game suspension, he “issued a hollow apology” in July and “has a history of sexually hostile behavior and appears to be no closer to understanding the impact of his conduct.” Yikes! An eight-month NFL investigation concluded that Winston engaged in detrimental conduct that night by “touching the driver in an inappropriate and sexual manner without her consent and that disciplinary action was necessary and appropriate.” Sounds pretty straightforward to us! Time for Winston to pay up for being pervy!
