Driver Beaten After Car Careens Into Crowd

"He (the driver) went over the pole and everybody that was on the sidewalk just took them down like dominoes little kids," Gonzales said. "Little babies went flying and he went dead on into the pole. Once he hit the pole, people just opened the door and started beating the guy up, and it got crazy -- just got crazy."

Man Who Careened Into Crowd May Have Broken Neck :thumbsup:

Edit: Added forgotten link!
 
if he got beat up by a crowd and crashed i'm sure he may have a broken neck... no link to article or am i missing something...
 
While at times it may satisfying, I have a hard time supporting vigilante justice in cases like this.

It was just last year wasn't it that a crowd beat a middle age guy to death in a similar accident? IIRC he had no alcohol or drugs, & hadn't been speeding/driving recklessly. He had a seizure/heart attack, something.

"...four of them are still hospitalized"

" Seven people remain hospitalized."

Quality reporting.

Happened on the south side of Chi town, iirc, but that was more than a year ago .. mayhap it's happened more than once. Ya know, maybe it isn't congruent with my stance on the bottle rocket thread, but wtf - these people were standing on the fvcking curb to watch this guy. While the driver is not blameless (and should face charges), I believe any of the bystanders who attacked him should also be charged - and perhaps those that didn't should be charged as accessories.

If the jury is composed of people like me, they'll walk.

Even though their attendance encourages street racing?
