From the Lansing State Journal:
“Police said there was a verbal exchange between the suspect and Rodeman moments before the incident.
“The suspect came by, was upset for whatever reason (and) circled back around” before running into the firefighter, Kraus said. “The preliminary investigation is that he deliberately hit the firefighter who was standing in the road, collecting for the charity.”
The suspect, who was driving a small pickup truck, continued north on Cedar Street and eventually was stopped in the 3100 block of Lawdor Road, Lansing police Capt. Darin Southworth said in a news release. He ran from the vehicle and was caught by officers.”
HMMMM, small pickup, verbal exchange, fled the vehicle... just HMMMMM. . . Amish?
btw I never thought it was a good idea either to collect in the middle of the roadway. Very dangerous.
