Kenna works in a small-very small-town about fifteen miles east of Clinton for an eccentric multi-millionaire who runs a huge conglomerate of businesses from his "corporate" headquarters there, his home town.Â
Yesterday, just after she left work, heading south toward the Interstate, she went past a man and a woman standing beside a pick-up on the side of the road. They appeared to be arguing and the man appeared to be holding the woman's head down inside the vehicle.
Kenna thought it was strange and continued to watch in her rearview mirror. Suddenly, she saw the man shove the woman out onto the highway, jump in his pick-up and gun it onto the road.
When Kenna next looked, the woman had disappeared. Suspecting he might have run over her, Kenna turned around and returned. She saw the woman lying in the road covered in blood.
To his credit, the man did stop. Neighbors, hearing the commotion, had gathered but someone had already called 911. She said the ambulance was there in less than five minutes. Several other witnesses verified Kenna's story that they had been fighting and that the man had hit the woman several times as they were followed, driving down Main Street.
Kenna waited to give her statement to the police; she said the woman was conscious but disoriented. She later heard that her injuries were so serious that she was flown to Oklahoma City by Medi-Vac.
Kenna said she couldn't tell if the man deliberately hit the woman or whether he was so angry he pulled out suddenly and accidentally ran over her.
At any rate, he was arrested at the scene.
Remind me never to take a ride with that guy.
