Was it an Assault Truck?
At least he did it in the prescribed place.

Pics at the link are sheer horror. Chilled my blood.

Coward driver hit and run. Was shot behind an Ace Hardware. If he lives, he’ll be prison bound.
Since they did not identify the subject other than to describe him as “white” it could have been the act of a jihadi in an assault truck rather than an accident.

The suspect, identified only as a 35-year-old white male, was hospitalized in critical but stable condition.
Coulter's Law stands.
Officers pursued the suspect to an area near 3rd Drive and Oliver, and the driver was eventually shot behind an ACE Hardware in the area. The suspect, identified only as a 35-year-old white male, was hospitalized in critical but stable condition.

I know that area very well, we lived up there in the summer when I was a kid. Nutcases usually avoid that area. If the cops don’t shoot you for being a criminal, one of the locals will.
FReepers are fast and funny. Sometimes fast and furious. Not funny.
Jordan Alexander Barson, I hope you rot in prison, you pathetic loser.
What could have possibly crushed the passenger side roof, with the truck looking like it did not roll? It wasn’t the bicyclists.
I have been a bicyclist, I have participated in this kind of organized rides.
