This Is A Tragedy: NY Mother Drives Into River Killing Herself Along With Her 3 Children Over A Domestic Fight! (Little Boy Escapes Through Car Window.. Survived)
"A mother in Newburgh, NY, is believed to have
driven a van carrying herself and four children
into the Hudson River, killing three of her
children.
Lashanda Armstrong, 25, drove the van off a boat
ramp Tuesday, plunging herself and four children
ages 10, 5, 3 and 11 months into the murky water.
Her 10-year-old, Lashuan, escaped the fate of his
siblings and mother, swimming to store. He was
picked up by a passerby who drove him to a nearby
fire station where police were alerted.
Authorities say the boy was "soaking wet” when he
arrived. By the time authorities reached the van
it was too late--all four inside had already died.
According to a report in the Times Herald-Record
of Middleton, NY, police had been called to the
woman’s home earlier in the night for a reported
domestic dispute.
Divers found the minivan in 8 feet of murky water
about 25 feet offshore, a short distance from
Gully’s, a floating restaurant, that hasn’t opened
yet for the season and a tow truck was used to
pull it from the water around 9 p.m.
The victims were identified as Lashanda Armstrong;
her two sons, Pierce Armstrong, 5, and Lance
Pierre, 2; and a daughter, Lainina, 11 months.
City of Newburgh investigators have ruled the
mother's death a suicide
The woman lived about six blocks from where she
