A Mississippi husband shot and killed his wife and two friends when they tried to stop him from driving drunk after a birthday party, officials said.
Carroll County Sheriff Clint Walker said Barnhill was"drunk and belligerent" at a celebration for his wife's birthday, according to WTVA.Authorities said Barnhill then"went outside to the vehicle, went back inside, slapped a cigarette from his wife's hand, and shot her in the chest."
Friends who were hosting the celebration, Jim and Brooks Harrell, tried to intervene and were fatally killed, officials said. Two other friends rushed to protect Harrell's 10-year-old son, who was asleep in his bedroom. The unidentified survivors then barricaded themselves in the room to call for help, WTVA reported.
It is unclear whether Barnhill has appeared in court or has a lawyer. The Carroll County Sheriff's Department was unable to answer a request for more information to NBC News on Thursday night.
