Police said an argument between groom James Shirah and groomsman Terry Lewis Taylor Jr. after the wedding allegedly led Shirah to hit Taylor Jr. with an SUV at high speed.

A bride and groom were arrested in Flint, Michigan, last week after the groom allegedly ran over and killed one of his groomsmen hours after the wedding, according to police.

The City of Flint Police Department responded to the 1400 block of E Hamilton Avenue on Aug. 30 for a report of a “pedestrian injury crash,” the department said Wednesday in a Facebook post.

The victim was identified as 29-year-old Terry Lewis Taylor Jr., who was found with severe injuries and taken to a nearby medical center where he later died.

    This stuff also happens other places, but yes people always think their experience was unique.

    Like how every damn town has the same jokes about weather, as if they’re unique.

      I mean, flint is pretty notorious. This type of behavior is constantly happening. Someone even shot someone for cutting in line at a Jimmy John’s. And there are constantly shootouts every week. It’s not an exaggeration. It’s the reason I moved away, not raising my kids in that shitshow. Bad water, gang activity, unhinged rednecks no thanks
