The couple was arguing in the parking lot of the restaurant when the woman locked the car doors. Her husband jumped on the hood of the car, and she drove off.
HOLLAND, Mich. — A woman was charged after a quarrel with her husband ended with him being thrown from the hood of a car in a Wendy’s parking lot, killing him, the Holland Department of Public Safety says.
Vinnice Daianie Leon, 44, of Grand Haven, was arraigned on a single count of a Moving Violation Causing Death on Monday.
The charge comes from March 25, shortly after noon. Police say the married couple from Grand Haven were arguing inside a ’09 Dodge Charger in the parking lot of the 16th Street restaurant in Holland.
The 45-year-old man, identified as Robert Baltazar Leon, stepped out of the vehicle during the argument, and authorities said his wife locked the doors.
The Holland Department of Public Safety said the woman then tried to drive out of the parking lot. However, her husband jumped onto the hood of the car.
She did not stop driving and instead turned left onto the private roadway between the Wendy’s and the Fifth Third Bank.
While she was turning, Robert was thrown from the hood of the car and struck his head on the pavement.
Officials said Robert was brought to a nearby hospital with serious injuries. He died from his injuries that same night.
Vinnice was uninjured. She will be held on a $1,000 bond.
