    The family of a Miller County woman is mourning tonight after GBI investigators say the 58 year old was murdered by her husband, before he took his own life.

An Albany driver was cited after she slammed into four cars and a bus stop . . . twice.

Police tell us 50 year-old Gloria Carter was driving her BMW north on Slappey Boulevard around 4:45 Thursday afternoon. She says when someone cut in front of her, she tried to go around them.

Carter hit a Chevy pickup and a Honda SUV, then crashed through a city bus stop and into a parked car near 8th Avenue. But she was just getting started.

Carter kept going, wheeled through the Taco Bell driveway, ended up going the wrong way on Slappey, circled back, hit the bus stop again, and finally stopped when she slammed into a parked truck at O'Reilly Auto Parts. Did you follow all that?

Carter is charged with failure to maintain her lane. Luckily, no one was hurt.
