Local crime story and it doesn't get much crazier than this. Essentially thug in Tahoe hits another vehicle, takes off and is chased by witnesses. They travel at speeds up to 100mph on four lane city blvd. Thug rear ends a vehicle stopped at traffic light, kills him in the accident, and shoots and kills teenager who came to his vehicle to offer help to said thug and his twin sons in the back seat. Sketchy reports say 7-10 vehicles involved in total.
Lots of details from various sources as well as videos.

Arlington PD doesn't deal with this every day, and witness accounts I imagine are all over the place.
Any rate, not sure what the lesson is here. Don't chase hit and run thugs? (probably wise) Or perhaps avoid offering assistance because you might just get shot for your trouble?
BTW, I used to live in those apartments in the picture years ago while going to school. These have changed in N Arlington, for the worst.

That’s funny. I lived in those ugly apts in the scene there which were named Misty Ridge Apts while in school 20 years ago.

Which Arlington? Virginia, Texas, Massachusetts? Would it hurt to put two extra letters in the title?

The last report I heard on the radio a couple hours ago said the perp shot some one who was rendering aid to the wounded, in the head.

Don’t that pizz you off?
That’s a bad intersection anyway. Rain and crazy idiots don’t help.
I never heard if the occupants in the yellow ‘smart car’ survived.

Uh, we are not to alter titles here per forum rules. Would it hurt you to check the topics list on this very page which appropriately so designates "U.S.: TX?"
And stop whining; it's not becoming of a lady. Good grief.

For those who did not read the entire article, the last line reveals the driver/shooter had his twin toddlers in the vehicle.
Color me stuned.

Terrible.
Guy sitting at a light minding his own business when an SUV plows into him and kills him.
Right before Christmas.
If someone gets shot for rendering aid, that's just as horrible.
Expect an ambulance chaser or two to sue those responsible for the chase causing the second accident.
The families of the deceased may have a case.
Some have won win police officers have been involved in chases and have killed or injured innocent bystanders.
Sad incident right before Christmas.

Perp is black. Stop the stupid Amish nonsense, no one is amused with it.
