Tennessee bride arrested for pulling gun out of wedding dress pointing it at new husband - New York Daily News

This bride had a lot more than a garter belt hiding underneath her wedding dress.

A newly married Tennessee couple's wedding night ended with the bride being carted off to jail after she pointed a gun at her husband's head.

Police said shortly after Kate Prichard and James Burton exchanged vows, they got into a heated argument which escalated to Prichard reaching under her wedding dress and brandishing a 9-mm. pistol.

Authorities said they received a call about a husband and wife yelling at each other outside the Clarion Inn motel, News Channel 5 reports.

Investigators said the new bride pulled the trigger, but the gun didn't fire because it wasn't loaded.

Prichard then loaded the weapon and fired a shot into the air, News Channel 5 reports. She then tried to get rid of the weapon by tossing it in a bathroom at the motel.
