A Texas woman used a home DNA test kit to find her biological father after 52 years.

Susan Chambers was told by her adoptive mother that she was conceived on a train when her biological mother met her biological father, a Marine on leave from Vietnam.

"I just assumed I would never find him because I had no name or anything to go on other than I knew he was a passenger on a train in September of 1966," Chambers told WFAA. The man realized while communicating with Chambers over email that his grandfather had been a Marine during the Vietnam War, according to WFAA. He then asked his grandfather about any potential connection.

Miracle👍

I did the same thing, linked me to a half brother in MN, and I paid for his uncle's DNA test and I was linked to him as well. Called my biological father and he doesn't want anything to do with this. I found out I have 3 half brothers from our same father.

This is happening more all the time. We had a stranger contact our family because he discovered he was related to us by DNA ancestry. He had been given up for adoption & was looking for his mom. She was a cousin & unfortunately had passed away so he didn’t get to meet her.

So she found the sperm donor

No thanks lmao

Lawyer: Police shot Texas woman in stomach, chest and face.A private autopsy shows a Houston-area police officer shot a mentally ill woman in the stomach, chest and face when the two struggled during an attempted arrest, a lawyer for the victim's family says. unacceptable Officers need a evaluation before being hired.. It is hard to see on the video whether she tased him or not, but if she did, he rightfully defended himself with deadly force. A police officer cannot allow himself to become incapacitated by someone he is trying to arrest. His gun could easily be used against him to murder him.
