Drug dealer's body severed in Homewood (Pittsburgh) crash
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette ^ | February 19, 2007 | Torsten Ove

A man found dead on a Homewood street this morning was cut in half when he reached into a car and the driver took off, slamming him into a pole on Hamilton Avenue, police said

Pittsburgh Police said the victim, who was identified as Antwon Williams, 45, was selling drugs to the driver of a blue Dodge Neon shortly after 6 a.m. Witnesses told police that the driver accepted crack cocaine but tried to drive away without paying. The seller then reached inside the driver's side window to try to put the car into park, but the driver drove off.

"We believe the top half of his body was inside the vehicle and his legs were outside," said Cmdr. Thomas Stangrecki, head of major crimes.

The car, which witnesses said contained two passengers, sped down Hamilton, where the victim's legs struck a pole. His body was severed. The car continued and eventually went out of control and stopped. The driver and his passengers, a man and a woman, fled on foot.

Well, we don't have to worry about him ruining anybody else's life with drugs. Considering what he did to other people's lives, I guess justice was done.

The driver and his passengers, a man and a woman, fled on foot.

Sure, they still had theirs, taunting the dead guy to the max.

I wonder if someone has filed a report that their half-brother is missing?

Drug dealers half off?

That's him all over.

Hmmm... I guess they can't charge all of him with leaving the scene of a crime.
