Very very sad news. The kid had his whole life ahead of him, it's a damn shame. Condolences and sympathies go out to his family.

Wish someone who had seen him not moving in the car had bothered to wander over to the car to check it out in the morning, rather than the afternoon. That really bothers me.

I agree with Riot. Said many saw him in his truck in the morning and they found him after 4pm....what the hell is that?

If it was unintentional, or if there was a sudden medical problem, perhaps his life could have been saved if he wasn't left unconcious in 80-degree heat all day in a car, even though people noticed him there in the morning.

This is some tough news today. I talked to this kid more than a half dozen times over beers last summer at Jimmy D's, across the street from Arlington Park.
Yet another reminder that every day is a gift and as Warren Zevon said, "Enjoy every sandwich." |
