Hey, Grim Reaper, thanks for your kind words but I am afraid that an autograph is entirely out of the question
Hey PHDAVE73 I wish you would shut your stupid mouth. You are always saying something negative and vulgar or hateful and you just suck. I knew this man that was killed and it makes me sick to hear you making jokes. This offends me to no end and I am just a freind what do you think the family members feel when they read these stupid snide comments being made. I wish that I could be there to bear witness when you get your payback for all of the reterded stuff that you puke out daily. I dont care if you believe in god or not or karma but I do and I know what goes around comes around and when yours comes everybody will celebrate while you will be asking for forgiveness and sympathy to no avail. You stupid coward how could you do this day after day? I cant wait till you get exactly whats coming to you.
is it true that after he was ejected from his car, he was cited for leaving the scene of an accident?
The police shut down roads entirely when a fatal or potentially fatal accident takes place. So it makes perfect sense as to why the whole road was closed between the two listed roads. Would you want to have your kids in the back of the car and drive by the scene of a fatal accident with some poor person’s body laying on the side of the road next to a mangled vehicle? Or be conducting an investigation and having people driving through your “crime scene”? So it does make sense to close all of Winchester Pike at the roads which boarder the accident.
I live off Gender. I work full time outside the home; I have a nineteen year old son I had sent on errands today. I was a wreck until I finally reached him.
I am not one to be critical of the writing but these mistakes can really worry people. There was no way I could leave work but that is actually what I wanted to do.
I would like to see the reporting bringing us together as a community, and serving a purpose…not sensationalism and rush articles.
I agree graver357—everyones in such a hurry to report the news—no one is interested in actually getting it RIGHT… WBNS is bad at it too ..
I live about 30 seconds away from the “accident site”... why would the police do the following… “Authorities closed westbound Winchester Pike at Gender Road and eastbound Winchester Pike at Brice Road during the crash investigation.“ I can see the “westbound Winchester Pike at Gender Road” because this is west of Winchester Pike and Gender Road… but why “eastbound Winchester Pike at Brice Road”.. this is west of that area… that would mean that the accident occurred between Brice road and Gender road… double check your facts…
