He was best man when James Shira and Savahna Collier promised each other eternal fidelity. But shortly after the wedding, Terry Taylor Jr. was intentionally run over - by the groom and his newlywed wife.

According to the Flint Police Department on Facebook, Shirah and Collier tied the knot in the garden of a friend's house in Flint, Michigan. Taylor Jr. was there as best man.

Around 8 p.m., a neighbor called 911 and reported that "a pedestrian had been seriously injured" after a collision with a car. An ambulance took Taylor Jr. to the emergency room of the local hospital, where he died of serious internal injuries.

According to the police report, the father of three was allegedly arguing with the groom before the accident: "The argument escalated. Shirah was behind the wheel of a large SUV, with his wife in the passenger seat. They were traveling at high speed and intentionally rammed the deceased as he crossed the road."
