MESA – A family fight turned ugly and then turned fatal in the East Valley.
It all happened early Friday morning in Mesa.
A woman allegedly went looking for her husband and found him with another woman and that is when the fight escalated and spilled out onto the street.
Detective Steven Berry with Mesa Police tells 3TV the wife located her husband who was at a party with his brother and other people. The husband allegedly got into an altercation with his wife before she called another family member to go pick her up.
When the wife was picked up, her husband and brother allegedly followed them and began ramming the back of their car with their pick-up truck.
Once the husband’s brother pulled over, the husband reportedly exited the vehicle and began pounding on the vehicle where his wife was riding in.
Once the family member who was driving the wife away began speeding away the husband jumped on the car and was subsequently thrown.
The husband was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators are still trying to determine whether the victim was run over or died from the impact of being thrown.
The man who was driving the wife was taken into custody because police say he drove a short distance away from the scene of the fatal wreck and stopped the car before attempting to flee.
