BICYCLIST KILLED BY HIT-AND-RUN DRIVER
A 32-year old bicyclist was killed in Chicago on December 16, 2009 by a hit-and-run driver in the Logan Square neighborhood by a van driver who was involved in road rage with another van. According to media reports, the driver of one van rammed a second van repeatedly. The van that was being struck by the other van swerved off the road and crashed through a body shop's wrought-iron fence. Sadly, the driver of the other van also lost control and struck the bicyclist.
The body shop had a surveillance video camera that recorded the crash and its aftermath. Road rage is irresponsible and can lead to tragedy. In this case, an innocent bystander who was reportedly filling out job applications, lost his life. Please drive safe.
