A Minnesota woman has been arrested and charged with reckless endangerment after police say she drove through the cemetery where her ex boyfriend’s funeral was being held in Fargo, North Dakota.
Fargo police said Blair, 28, drove her SUV through Riverside Cemetery on Saturday while the service was underway. “Multiple complainants reported Blair was driving her vehicle, inside the cemetery, in a manner with extreme indifference for human life which created substantial risk of serious bodily injury to persons in the cemetery,” police told KVRR.
The ex boyfriend’s father told police she had not been invited. Another person at the funeral said she was not welcome because of negative social media posts about her ex’s death. One witness said he told her to leave and that she pressed the gas, forcing him to move out of the way. Attendees also alerted a nearby officer, saying the SUV was driving over gravesites.
Blair gave a different account to police. She said she stayed in her SUV, that people approached her because they believed she would hurt them, and that she drove away peacefully and never tried to hit anyone. According to Fox News, she was booked into the Cass County jail and pleaded not guilty at a court hearing.
The charge is an allegation, and the case was still moving through the court system at the time of this report.
