I havent found a news link yet but I heard on the news a man driving a pickup truck in Mexico City plowed through a bunch of children on purpose and killed 2 of them, many others were injured.
Terrible! http://www.thenewsmexico.com/noticia.asp?id=25111 Man angered by preschoolers runs them over TheNewsMexico.com - 5/7/2002 A man angered by preschool children who were blocking the street while they sang the national anthem outside their school ran them over killing two and injuring 22 others, the local press reported Monday. Two children, aged three and five, died when Jose Luis Nieto Avila - who lived only blocks away from the Gabriela Mistral daycare center in the Ecatepec district of the adjacent State of Mexico - purposely drove his pickup truck through the group of children. The school's director and two other parents were also injured in the incident. According to neighborhood residents, Nieto, on several occasions, had threatened school director Socorro Bibriesca, that he would run over the children if they continued to occupy the street during their weekly flag salute. Police arrested the 56-year-old only blocks away from the school. A local daily reported authorities later went to his house to search for his children who apparently fired shots from a handgun into the air to prevent their father's arrest. They were not there when the authorities arrived.
This b*stard needs to be run over by a car himself. I'm serious. That is the only way to teach these kind of nuttsos.
also The whole thing was caught on tape, They showed some of it. Obvisiously it would have been too graphic to show it all.
Not to diminish the man's responsibility for his crime, I would ask why the school director would continue to allow the students to stand in the street knowing there was a man threatening to run them down.
I don't know about you. But, where I come from its not common a man would stoop as low as to run over children. Warning someone your going to do something doesn't give you any right to justify it.
like mrpaige said, why would you leave them in the street. i mean i just don't think you should take that kind of chance that someone won't be a nut when kids lives are involved. however, that guy is just despicable.
