The police report indicates a mother and her 26 year old son were fighting when he floored it on a curve and killed a woman.

He allegedly took a curve too fast, hit several trees, hit a median, and then went airborne before colliding with the driver’s side of a Porsche that was sitting at the light on Turtle Creek Boulevard. The impact flipped the Porsche, and the Tesla landed on top.

The driver of the Porsche, 29-year-old Emma Hackney, died in the crash. A passenger in the Porsche was critically injured, and so was Petty’s mom, who was with him in the Tesla.

According to the affidavit, Petty told officers he had crashed because his mom was trying to grab his phone, since he was driving with the phone in his hand.

Preston Petty is the 2025 Tesla owner’s full name, and police also charged him with intoxication while driving his mother. So he’s facing intoxication manslaughter and assault.
