A North Carolina woman slammed into a tree at 111 mph while fleeing from cops, killing her three sons, who were unsecured in the car.

The crash happened June 3 at 10:50 p.m. along Cedar Creek Road/N.C. 53 near Fields Road, just west of Interstate 95, a Fayetteville Police Department news release said.

The wreck involved a single car, a white Kia, that left the road and crashed into a tree, killing two children at the scene, Fayetteville police said.

A third child was taken to Cape Fear Valley Medical Center with life-threatening injuries, police said. The third injured child later died, according to an arrest warrant filed by the North Carolina State Highway Patrol.

Mom crashed into tree fleeing from police, killing 3 boys

Megan Symone Scott, 31, faces three counts of involuntary manslaughter in the deaths of her sons Jae’Coda Thomas, 3, Ju’Mari Thomas, 6, and Jack Thomas, 8, along with numerous other charges, including two counts of felony assault — physical injury of a law enforcement officer, misdemeanor assault with a deadly weapon, and misdemeanor crime of domestic violence.

The ordeal began as a domestic violence incident on June 3 in the 100 block of S. Eastern Boulevard in Fayetteville, an arrest affidavit said.

Scott and her boyfriend were apparently arguing over money he wanted to send to one of his other children when she allegedly bit him in the arm as they sat in her car.

He got out of the car, and she began driving toward him, cops said.

He tried to get out of the way but allegedly ended up on her hood before he fell to the ground.

He ran away before she could injure him further, cops said.

Officers obtained an arrest warrant for Scott and later pulled her over during a traffic stop.

They ordered her to exit the car, but she allegedly took off, striking two cops, who suffered minor injuries in the process.

Scott fled at speeds reaching 111 mph with her three kids in the car, the affidavit stated.

As Scott drove down State Road 53, she crossed the centerline, overcorrected, and left the road before she smashed into a tree.

She was ejected from the car, along with two of her sons. Two of the kids were pronounced dead at the scene, while a third was airlifted to a hospital, where he died.

None of the kids were wearing seat belts or in car seats as required, cops allege.

The family of the three kids has started a GoFundMe to raise funds for their funerals.

“The pain and grief we are experiencing is unimaginable, and we are struggling to find the strength to move forward,” the description reads.

Scott remains in the Cumberland County Jail without bond. Her next court date is set for July 7.
