Here's one for you...I didn't see, I did.
Hit and killed a theif trying to run across the freeway to get away from the owner chasing him.
Back my senior year in HS, was cruising down a detoured section of the freeway that backs right up against these garage buildings in the back of peoples houses...no barrier really, the roadway was about 15 feet from the back of the buildings.
Was cruising along at about 50 mph when a dude runs right out in front of me from beside one of the garages, without even looking to see what traffic was coming.
He just jumped up in the air right before I hit him, his feet went thru the grill of the car and up-end him. I didn;t even have time to hit the brakes. His chest hit right on the driver side A-pillar crushing it and throwing glass all over me.
The guy went flipping in the air and landed on the other side of the guard rail.
I stop, freaking out thinking it was a construction worker or something.
Stop get out of the car, and several others had already stopped. And a guy comes running up saying that SOB stole his radar detector out of his car in the driveway....sure enough, the cord of the detector was still clinched in the guys hand as he lay bleeding out of his chest. I didn't feel so bad after finding that out!
He died in route to the hospital. The cop told me that nothing was my fualt, but that the guys family are all convicted felons and for revenge they may come rob my house or something so warned me to be on the lookout.
Later that evening, I drive the car up to the local dealer to get a new front grill....windshield all smashed up and A-pillar bent in about 10 inches....a friend of mine walks in as says..and this is no crap
"What happened to your car? Whats all that hamburger meat looking stuff all over the windshield? "
It was the guys skin and meat from his chest area the caved in the a-pillar and the broken glass where the glass meets the a-pillar basically de-skinned the guy
