Carjackers threaten to kill 3-year-old girl over Jaguar, mom says

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A Memphis mom says a group of armed carjackers threatened to kill her 3-year-old daughter if she didn’t give up her Jaguar Friday night.

Donnii’ Watkins said she had just pulled into a parking spot at her sister’s apartment complex off Knight Arnold in Hickory Hill when she was ambushed by several men in ski masks who began beating on her SUV with guns and told her to get out of the vehicle.

“I wasn’t even in a parking spot for thirty seconds. My car wasn’t even in park yet,” said Watkins. “I was like, I’m not getting out of my vehicle.”

Watkins said the carjackers had already blocked her vehicle in with another car, and when she refused to give up her Jaguar, they turned their attention toward her daughter.

“I was trying to stay calm, and the guy that was on the passenger side grabbed the door open, and three of them were in the inside, and they were pointing the gun at my baby, and they were like, ‘If you don’t get out of the car, we’re going to kill your baby,'” Watkins said. “I was like, ‘Okay. I’ll leave everything. I just want my baby.'”

“They grabbed her and put the gun up to her. She was like, ‘Mommy, I’m scared,'” she said.

The six carjackers got away with her purse, house keys, credit cards, and glasses. Watkins said they were later spotted joyriding in her SUV. She said the suspects were still wearing the masks and hanging out of the windows with guns.

Monday, Watkins learned from WREG that her Jaguar was recovered a day later in the 1500 block of East Dempster in South Memphis. Police said the vehicle did not appear to be damaged.

Armed men block the car, point guns at her, and demand the car. Her daughter is in the car with her and she REFUSES. That’s “Mother of the Year” level parenting.

You must have strong legs to carry around all that virtue. Do you trust the science too?

Nope. Number one priority is getting the kid safely out of the situation. Play John Wayne another time.

You don’t drive a stagecoach through the jungles of Papua New Guinea. The Pygmy cannibals will always find you.

This should be a lesson for ALL civilized people. If you are traveling in cannibal territory, make sure to mount a Gatling gun atop your vehicle, and be ready to use it.

““So a mother, probably, single, probably on food stamps & WIC, drives a Jaguar.””

Ah, yes. Another black controlled metropolitan area fulfilling Lyndon Johnson’s dream of perpetuating liberal politics in perpetuity.

I’m not going to write here what I have planned. Keep watching the news. Something I learned here on Free Republic: Never threaten anyone, it ruins the surprise.
