A parenting influencer is opening up about what she’s calling the "worst day of her life" -- revealing she accidentally ran over her toddler in a terrifying freak accident.
Kelly Hopton-Jones shared the ordeal in a lengthy IG post ... saying she was heading out Wednesday with her 4-year-old daughter Lily to grab donuts, while her 23-month-old son Henry stayed home with her husband -- but in a split second, he darted out of the garage and into the path of her car.
She says they rushed Henry to the ER immediately -- and incredibly, X-rays showed his chest, legs, and neck were all normal, while a neurological exam found no signs of head trauma.
Thieves are always stirrup-ing trouble -- but this one got a full-on hoof chase -- as a mounted NYPD cop went galloping after a purse-snatching suspect, all caught on body cam.

The twist? The takedown doesn’t even come from the cop -- a passerby swoops in and grabs the thief first ... and holds the horse while the officer arrests the perp.
Clavicular's entourage is a little smaller after his suspected overdose last night ... his friend Androgenic who flew out from Australia to be a side character on his live stream just got kicked to the curb ... and it sounds like Adderall is to blame.
Sources close to Clavicular tell TMZ ... people in the streamer's inner circle felt the Australian was a bad influence ... and the dude raised concerns when he appeared to offer Clav an Adderall during the possible overdose incident.
We're told Clav had been keeping the guy around because he's another "looksmaxxer," and Clav wasn't buying the bad influence claims ... but that all changed today -- our sources say Clav's security escorted the friend out of Clav's house, and Clav didn't try to stop it.

BTW, Clavicular is a major Blueface fan ... the streamer had Blueface on his stream about a month ago and rapped his "Respect My Cryppin'" word-for-word.
