COOPER TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- Police fielded complaints that a pickup truck was being driven erratically just minutes before the vehicle slammed into a group of bicyclists in western Michigan, killing five, authorities said.Four other bicyclists suffered serious injuries in the crash early Tuesday evening in Cooper Township and were being treated at area hospitals, Kalamazoo County Prosecutor Jeffrey Getting said during a news conference Tuesday night.
The truck driver is in custody but has not been charged.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims," Getting said. "I can't even begin to imagine what they're going through."
The driver of the pickup, described as a 50-year-old western Michigan man, fled from the wrecked vehicle, but police caught him a short time later.

Since most bicyclists wear competitive branded clothing and view themselves as peak level competitors, I am sure the pickup driver will be called a "race"ist and charged with a hate crime.

Heard about this on the news. Disgusting.

Doesn't read like the cyclists started it like cyclists are wont to do, reads like this guy was off his rocker.

Sad for sure but part of me almost chuckled. I mean who hasn't fantasized about doing it at some point?

When I meet up with Ray "do not ride a bike"

Because trucks have "other uses". Guns are only made to destroy.

Someone should sue the maker of the truck though, no?

Yes, surely it wasn't the jackass behind the wheel.

I think all the gun manufacturers should be sued for negligence since none of their products were used to shoot this guy in the face like he deserves.
