What's up with these knuckleheads on a motorcycle freaking out about the police driving behind them, speeding off and then going over the edge of the High-5? Nothing on Dallasnews.com yet but WBAP is talking about it. Apparently they had a machete and some kind of rifle? Maybe I should have posted this under the idiots thread in Pegasus Place.

Maybe we got ourselves contenders for this year's Darwin awards. Looking forward to more details.

Aha, found an article on WBAP.com (http://www.wbap.com/Article.asp?id=285505&spid=6051)

It was in the Star-Telegram too. I guess Dallas would rather pretend it didn't happen. :rolleyes:

My wife and I lived in the apartments near Kit & Maham, where the chase started, in the late '80s. The fact that we could afford the apartments tells you that they weren't the top of the line 15 years ago. But it was pretty cool -- I was working at TI, and I could walk to work under Central Expressway (before the reconstruction began).

If it isn't on the wire services, it won't be in the DMN...

DMN's got it too now. Not much of an article, tho.
