Right here in home town Anderson. Actually my wife and I were at the mall when the Law/Rescue crews started showing up. We did not see the crash though. The young man hit one of the buildings at the mall trying to defy gravity.
Force = Mass x Acceleration. He was wearing a helmet, but died at the scene of broken cervicals and chest trauma.
The story was on the front page the next morning. The photo showed the Honda totally scrunched on the front end. Couldn't tell the model or year though. I did see one of the new orange tiger-stripped Hondas leaving the mall shortly afterward.
Tragic waste of a fine machine and a young life. :nono:
I'm scanning the newspaper version if anyone wants it emailed.
