Police: Woman Seriously Injured After Husband Pushes Her From Moving Vehicle
FALLS TOWNSHIP, Pa. (CBS) -- A violent ride in a pickup truck Monday left a Warminster woman in critical condition. The driver -- her husband -- is being held on charges including aggravated assault and DUI.
Four beers and a couple shots of tequila in an hour made a marital spat about money matters that much worse, according to investigators.

After tossing back the booze at a bar, Falls Township Police say 31-year-old Andrew Ryan of Tulip Road in Warminster got behind the wheel of his F-250 with wife Robin in the passenger seat.
Witnesses told police the truck was swerving on Lincoln Highway when a woman fell out and was run over by the landscaping trailer it was towing.

The affidavit says Andrew admitted to knowing Robin hadn't fully closed her door; he told officers he didn't know he'd struck her but sped off because, he said, he was 'drunk.'
The wife was left with brain swelling and a broken thigh bone. She remains in critical condition.
Ryan is behind bars in Bucks County Prison awaiting a preliminary hearing next month.
