Eddie Montgomery wants fans to leave his children alone

Montgomery Gentry member Eddie Montgomery doesn’t mind if fans talk to him, but he wants them to leave his children alone.

Eddie and his wife Tracy underwent a scare last week when a green van was spotted outside of their farm by neighbors.  Later on, the same vehicle was seen following a school bus that had the couple’s children inside. Once the children stepped off of the bus, one of the men from the van yelled at Eddie’s 11-year-old son by name.  The little boy immediately took off at a run towards his house.

After an investigation, the police discovered that the men, who do not have criminal records, were just starstruck.  However, Eddie is not so sure and is warning parents in the area to be on the lookout for anything unusual.

Eddie and Tracy have four children — Kevin, Brooke, Candace and Hunter.

YIKES! That is such a scary situation! Luckily his children were smart enough to run away! I don’t care if they had a criminal record or not, that’s not something you would normally do, even to famous children! Creepy guys……

Out of curiousity, though it might already be common knowledge WHY on earth would you knowingly mention ALL of their childrens names? ESPECIALLY with them just having a major scare like that? Wouldn’t that be further compromising the kids security and/or safety….??

Maybe I’m over-reacting a bit here but good grief this world is already scary enough as it is for our kids & I would HOPE that we wouldn’t do anything to contribute to that…YIKES….anyhoo…just my $.01 opinion…!!
