2 bodies found on bike path in Ill

How awful. Hope I'm never in a situation to find bodies. We had a tragedy over the weekend where a bicyclist was struck by a car and the dragged several feet. The car the jumped the curb and struck a sign, thus freeing the cyclists body, before fleeing the scene. The bicycle rider was killed, and the driver turned himself in a few days later. The driver was speeding, and had to be treated for injuries at a local hospital the night of the accident. Authorities had been looking for him. Apparently the cyclist was riding near his home when struck.

I hate these kind of stories- very sad for them and their families. The sad one I heard this week was that the grandson of an Alabama senator was found beside the interstate w/the door open, no keys, and his body over the embankment. He had been missing at least a week and someone used his debit card as well. He was shot. Here's the updated story. Poor kid.

I find it hard to believe about suicide if someone stole his debit card and used it over the state line.

I hate to hear about all of this. Such a senseless loss. I too hope I never come across anything like that. Somtimes stories like this make me a little nervous about riding alone.
