Thursday, October 10, 2024 -A drunk Ohio dad allegedly tried to teach his 9-year-old son how to drive, with shocking video showing him almost immediately getting run over and dragged under the car.
Clejuan Williams, 36, was allegedly intoxicated while trying to show his son
how to back out of their driveway in Toledo on Sunday, October 6, according to
police and video footage obtained by WTVG.
Williams allegedly told the boy to tap on the brakes, and, not knowing which
pedal to use, his son instead hit the gas, causing the car to fly backward and
smash into a pole across the street, police said.
The video shows Williams standing on the driver’s side of the car with the door
open then getting knocked down and dragged underneath the car as soon as
it accelerates.
Two children can be seen running out
of the car one from the driver’s seat and the other from the back, and
rushing over to help him on the ground. Other children can be seen in the
street watching on.
Williams was rushed to a local
hospital, the outlet said, with his condition unknown.
He has been charged with wrongful entrustment of a motor vehicle and
endangering children.
Fortunately, none of the children were injured, police said.
“It is heartbreaking to see because as a parent, when you see that happen you
think about how that can be prevented,” Toledo Police Officer Prince Flores
told WTVG.
“As a parent, your job is to make sure that your kids are safe and to make
sound decisions. You want to make sure you’re putting them in the best possible
decision to be ok.”
