OMPANO BEACH, Fla. – Chaos unfolded at a Pompano Beach park last week after a driver was accused of slamming her car into a woman and a child.

That driver took down a portion of a gate before driving into a playground and hitting a grandmother and her 3-year-old grandson.

“You see those kids running and screaming for their lives,” said that grandmother, Chaunda McCleod.

She told Local 10 News she saw a group arguing at Pompano Beach Community Park.

“They were on the other side and it was a fight, so we started to get all of the kids to get them out of the park, because we saw the situation was getting worse and worse,” McCleod explained.

Phedeline St. Felix was behind the wheel of the vehicle that hit McCleod. She said she went to the park to settle an argument with another woman, and she got emotional.

“I was attempting to run her over, but then I see someone put her out of the way,” St. Felix said.

Instead, McCleod said St. Felix came barreling towards her and her grandson, knocking down a gate in the process, and driving into the park where kids were playing.

“I was just running to my grand baby,” McCleod said. “Had I not picked him up, she would have ran completely over him and he would have been under the car. As I’m picking him up, she’s just hitting us both and we just went flying over the car and finally we hit the ground.”

St. Felix said she simply lost control of the car.

“I was trying to find the brakes,” she said “I couldn’t find the brakes. I didn’t mean to hit them, it was an accident and I hope they are ok.”

With a name like Phedeline St. Felix, it’s likely she’s a Haitian. They’re notorious for insurance fraud ring activity in FL with staged accidents, but sounds like this was a simple lack of impulse control.

Humans come in a wide spectrum of abilities from the bright ones who put a rover on Mars that is deploying its own remotely controlled helicopter to *this*. From the sublime to dumber than a stale donut.

“I didn’t know the car was loaded.”

“I wasn’t aiming for her, she just got in the way.”

Not things you want the jury to hear.

We now officially live in a third world Hellhole.

Quite possibly.
I suspect the highest IQ involved this little s***show was about 80.

Kind of a strange alibi.

“I was really trying to kill someone else!”

DA Gascon in L.A. would have let her go without arresting or indictment, because, she didn’t mean to do it and it was accidental that she ran over the wrong people.

And serving justice would, of course, be racist in this case.

Yeah, I was wondering if the brakes had moved or something. I know mine are pretty much always where I left them, there on the floor next to the gas pedal, but who knows where those things might slip off to when you’re trying to run someone over.

The fact that she was trying for someone else should get her off the hook. Sheesh.

I searched on the driver's name and found this gem from 2017:

"Stanley Julien, 18, was shot and killed while driving west in the 1500 block of Northwest 16th Court . . . . Two female passengers were also shot. Phedeline St. Felix, 19, and an unidentified 16-year-old girl, both of Fort Lauderdale . . . ."
