Hit-and-Run Rampage
Some guy stole two different vehicles and (apparently) ran over pedestrians deliberately.
A string of hit-and-run accidents ended with one person dead and several injured.
…
Officers say Abdullah El-Amin Shareef, 25, stole a City of Fayetteville van and a pick-up truck Wednesday morning and hit at least five people. Police say the slain man was found pinned under the stolen van. They’ve identified him as Lonel Bearl Bass, 56.
…
“He tried to back over me, missed and then went forward to try to hit me again and then got out and started beating me,” [said hit-and-run victim David] McCaskill.
…
The Highway Patrol says the suspect has a history of driving violations, including citations for driving without a license and driving while impaired.
Unbelievable. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of Mr. Bass and the other victims.

This is horrible.
I wonder how long until someone blames video games, like Grand Theft Auto.
