worries

My dad called me the other day and tipped me off to this story.

"Two students at the University of Wisconsin - Stout have been arrested in the death of a fellow student they allegedly attacked as he biked on Main St. after an altercation early Saturday morning.

The victim, Bradley Simon, flew over the handle bars and hit his head on a concrete wall along Main St., according to the report from the Menomonie Police Department. He died Thursday afternoon, one of two people to die while on a bicycle in the state this week."

This sort of thing worries me so much. It's one thing to make a stupid mistake and crash and get hurt, its another to have someone else make a stupid decision that ends up with you getting killed. Especially some lame hockey players getting drunk and agro and deciding that they can pick a fight.

It is more upsetting that I highly doubt this is an isolated incident, unfortunately this time someone just ended up getting killed.

Really depressing. What's the lesson? Keep a cool head, ride safe, wear a helmet, hope for the best.
