This is absolutely crazy and awful!
A Long Island woman ran over her cousin twice with a mini-van and then left her for dead in freezing temperatures all because of a Facebook friend request.
According to the New York Post, the fight broke out between Melanie Spanopoulos and Giselle Penagos during the car ride home from a bar.
Melanie's lawyer claims Giselle became furious when she found out a "potential love interest" accepted her cousin's friend request and not hers.
The two ended up wrestling on the side of the road before Spanopoulos got back in the car and ran Penagos over and then again in reverse, leaving her with a broken leg and shattered pelvis
Ouch.
A man eventually pulled over and asked if they needed help, to which Melanie offered him $20 to take Giselle to Queens. They both pulled away, but the good Samaritan came back 5 minutes later and took the girl to her dad's house.
At her arraignment on Tuesday Spanopoulos' lawyer Dennis Lemke said she was innocent.
