A mother in Texas was recorded pointing a gun at a teen girl who
seemingly tried to get involved in a physical fight involving
the woman's daughter.
The video shows two girls physically fighting, with a third girl
seemingly attempting to chime in nearby. Chade Lockett, the
mother of one of the two girls in the altercation, is seen
drawing a handgun and pointing it at the girl, whom she appears
to chase after.
The two girls continue to fight and Lockett runs in and tries to
break it up, seemingly breaking the girls apart. They continue
to fight and pull each other's hair while the mother circles the
scene.
The argument stemmed from an issue the girls had on Snapchat,
KTRK-TV reported. Lockett told the station the video doesn't
tell the whole story, and the weapon was actually her son's toy
BB gun.
The woman who recorded the video, Veneisha Jones, said Lockett
"pulled a gun out on us. We were frightened for our lives."
Jones told the news outlet that the girls who were fighting were
15 and 13 years old.
"They're both teens, they fight and get into it, that's what
teens do," she said, adding that Lovett "had no reason to put
her hands on her or anything like that."
"I'm doing what a mother should do, which is protect your
child," Lovett told KTRK. "Y'all trying to make it seem like
y'all didn't do anything."
Lovett said in a separate interview with KPRC-TV that she only
grabbed the gun from her car "when I saw they had knives. It was
either the crowbar or the BB gun. I chose the BB gun. It looked
realistic. It was 15 of them and two of us."
"I'm going to defend myself and my daughter," Lovett added.
Tracy McIntyre, the grandmother of the other teenager involved
in the altercation, reportedly filed a report with the Houston
Police Department.
