I just heard it was a 16 year old with the last name of Phelps that was hit and injured. Apparently he pulled into the path of a car.
The nugget driving the car was arrested for DUI. David Bruce was the driver, so let's all add him to our Christmas Caroling list.

You've got to wonder who made the comment or witnessed it and gave the statement "rode his bike onto the road"
Was he lawfully ridiing his bike on the road, or did he pull out in front of the car? Do you know? Ya just have to be curious when you read a story like that.
