Investigators say a Tennessee mother is facing charges after she allegedly drove her vehicle off a cliff with her two young kids inside.
Chase Ryan Klinedinst, 30, was behind the wheel of a Honda CR-V when she reached a dead-end road near "Coffey's Cliff" in Chattanooga and continued driving.
The suspect's vehicle fell about 25 feet, then drove off a cliff and landed "upside down near railroad tracks," an affidavit says.
