GRAND BAY, Ala. - A friendship turns sour in Grand Bay. Two people end up in the hospital, and another is taken to jail.

Sheriff's deputies were called to Burlington Drive in Grand Bay Sunday. Two people had been hit by a truck.

One of the victims is Samantha McCullough's boyfriend.

"He hit Chris, and then he hit Chris' brother Junior, run over his foot, and went through the people's yard. He hit the car, and he hit their trailer," McCullough said.

McCullough said her boyfriend moved a friend into his home to help him out. But the two had a falling out that ended with McCullough's boyfriend getting beaten.

She said it happened Saturday when the two men went to the store.

"And when he came back he was all upset, and his face was bloody," she said.

Selena Weaver, the mother of the other man, said there was violence and gunfire at her house the same night.

"It was like 12 of them last night. They just charged both of my kids. They charged them, and they went to firing guns. I didn't know if my kids were alive or dead, I didn't know," Weaver said.

The dispute fired up again when the two sides got into another fight that ended with Peter Breland's two sons getting hit by a truck. Breland said he came down the street when he heard the commotion.

"When I started up here, I said dial 911, get the law out here," Breland said.

Nineteen-year-old Wade Sprinkle was booked into Mobile Metro Jail late Sunday. Sprinkle is charged with two counts of second degree assault.
