Teen "rolling coal" crashes into group of cyclists, hospitalizes 4

Quote:

A group of Houston area cyclists are hospitalized after getting hit by a pickup truck in Waller County Saturday morning. According the Waller County Sheriff, 6 cyclists were hit by the vehicle along old 290, roughly 2 miles west of Waller. In total, four of the cyclists had to be taken to area hospitals, including 2 by helicopter. ... Roughly 75 miles into their training ride, Ferrell says a black diesel pickup truck slowed down near him and accelerated to blow smoke in his lane. Moments later, the pickup trick tried doing the same thing to other cyclists riding ahead of Ferrell. "The reason he couldn’t stop is because he was accelerating to blow more diesel fuel on these cyclists," said Ferrell. "He ended up hitting 3 people before his brakes even started."

2 of the 4 were life flighted out via emergency helicopter.

No arrest as of yet of the 16 year old driver who remained at the scene. Apparently intentional reckless driving resulting in serious injury is not a crime.
