A mother shot her own son dead as he drove her from a
casino, where they had been celebrating her birthday, according to authorities
and reports.
Dora Blake, 47, from Minden, Louisiana, was arrested on a
murder charge early on Sunday for killing 22-year-old Patrick Hollingsworth,
according to the Bossier Sheriff's Office. She was also charged with attempted
murder for injuring another woman sitting in the front of the car.
Authorities say the three were driving on I-20 on
Saturday night after visiting a nearby casino while out celebrating Blake's
birthday, which was on Sunday.
Police say Blake was drunk, took out her gun and shot the
other two from the back seat of the car for unknown reasons, KSLA reported.
The car was found crashed into trees around 10.20 p.m. on
Saturday. Hollingsworth was found dead in the driver's seat with a gunshot
wound to his head.
Blake told witnesses that she had been kidnapped and had
shot the two other people in the car.
"None of that made sense, that there was any type of
kidnapping," Bossier Sheriff's Office spokesman Lt. Bill Davis said.
