Mom Fires Shotgun at Daughter's Ex-Boyfriend; Police Taser Her After She Kicks Out Cop Car Window

Now THAT'S what we call hard core . . . as if you couldn't tell by the looks of Anthonia Montairo Catoire-Miller, 33, of Madisonville, Louisianna. Ms. Catorie-Miller faces charges of attempted second degree murder, simple criminal damage to property, resisting an officer, taking contraband to and from a penal institution, and two contempt of court warrants. The last couple seem to indicate she MAY have been slightly familiar with the legal system in this country prior to the latest incident which, in the very least, puts her in the running for our "Mother of the Year" competition. We'll let WWL tell the rest of the story to you:

Investigators say 33-year-old Anthonia Montairo Catoire-Miller of #7 Hester St., Madisonville was driving a minivan with three of her teenage children Monday afternoon near the intersection of Kathmann and Hester streets off Hwy. 22

According to police, Catoire-Miller spotted her daughter's ex-boyfriend standing nearby with a group of friends. After driving a short distance away from the group, police say that the woman stopped her vehicle and backed up, and pointed the barrel of a .410 shotgun out of the driver's side window and fired one shot in his direction. Although the victim was 15 - 20 feet from the vehicle, he was not hit, according to a Sheriff's Department spokesman.

Investigators say Catoire-Miller then parked her vehicle in a nearby driveway and walked a short distance with her children to her pending residence at 70 Oak Park Drive. Deputies responding to a 911 call say they found an extremely combative Catoire-Miller in her Oak Park Dr. residence. After being handcuffed and placed in the rear of a patrol car, officers say she used her legs to kick out one of the unit's rear windows. Deputies say they were finally able to subdue Catoire-Miller after using a taser.

Due to her combative state, deputies say they were unable to determine a motive for the shooting. Investigators say the shotgun was retrieved from the Oak Park Dr. house. During processing at the jail, officials say a second live shotgun shell was found in Catoire-Miller�s brassiere.
