RICHMOND, Va. -- Chesterfield school bus driver Van'Meshia "Henny" Proctor was intentionally run over during an argument in Richmond, Crime Insider sources told Jon Burkett.

"She always had a smile on her face. It's just devastating to even believe it," Proctor's brother Marvin Battle said.

Richmond Police said Tierra Carter was driving the SUV that hit and killed Proctor on August 12 near Coalter and Littlepage streets in Richmond's Mosby Court community.

"She took it upon herself to turn around and hit my sister with that car," Proctor's sister Shadiamond Shearin said. "My sister didn't deserve that."

The source of the argument has not yet been disclosed.

"She could've left," Battle said about Carter's alleged action. "She made a U-turn. My sister was walking to her car. My cousin said she hit the gas so hard. It's crazy."
