We will shoot to kill!” They fired into his back as he went around the back of the church. The officers cautiously ran after him and saw no body, nor a drop of blood! They searched the immediate area for some clue as to where the red-eyed driver could have gone. They assumed that he staggered off to die. Helpless in their efforts to find the strange-looking being, they turned to Big Mama, who was still screaming at the sky. The officers handcuffed her, and Big Mama was taken to the Troy Memorial Hospital, sedated, treated for shock, and evaluated by the emergency room psychiatrist. She was admitted to psychiatric unit thirty five for “bizarre behavior”. Big Mama was discharged ninety days later, and missed her husband’s funeral.
