    Was it a snow ball dressed like a mercedes falling off the ski slope they jusy installed in the parking lot.

  • Why oh why?? February 18th, 2010 | 8:11 am

    Why is this news? Do you post this stuff just to get Kevin Cox fired up?

  • Chicago Boy February 18th, 2010 | 8:27 am

    Great in-depth reporting.

  • joey February 18th, 2010 | 8:28 am

    yes, but what color was the pedestrian?

    90% of the time, these dispatches are incorrect or injuries are very minor. I’ve probably been dispatched to 10 pedestrians hit, and only seen one bad injury.

    Im confused, was the car green in color or going to Mcdonalds for a fill of veggie oil.

    Don’t look at me, man.

    Did someone say something about humping?

  • Man with a paper a-hole February 18th, 2010 | 9:19 am

    Now I see…it was bumping. Is there a difference?

    If I didn’t jump in here with both feet joking and laughing about cop shoppe cars repeatedly running over pedestrians….

    ….the rest of you shouldn’t either!!! :)

    More hard hitting reporting by Hawes. Are you sure Gary O’Connell isn’t to blame!?!?

  • Gasbag Self Ordained Expert February 18th, 2010 | 1:28 pm

    I think the cop shoppe is to blame. They have pretty much proven it’s OK to run over pedestrians with immunity from any law(s). :)

    Maybe subliminal distraction was the cause.

  • mark February 18th, 2010 | 3:57 pm

    Any reference to Mt Chipotle- we seek DETAILS

  • belmont sucks regardless February 18th, 2010 | 4:34 pm

    the driver was distracted frmm that loud rock and roll eminating from belmont…

  • Tina February 18th, 2010 | 7:07 pm

    The accident happened on Millmont behind the shopping center.
