Neighborhood resident John Winker captured these images of mayhem caused by an idiot in red Ford who wove a path of destruction in down Boston around noon on Friday. The fool ran down a fence on the SE corner of 33rd and Boston; took out the planter at the SE corner of 26th and Boston (where students wait for the trolley!); barrelled east on 26th with a flat tire and finally stopped when he was nailed by a white Ford pickup. Both drivers were taken to the hospital by ambulence. No word on their conditions. You never know where these dummies will surface. Second hand reports indicate the driver of the red truck might have been drinking. Makes me think twice about parking on the street.

The alleged drunk driving vehicle- note it came to rest dangerously close to a daycare center.
This driver was minding his own business on University when the red truck pulled out in front of him.
Yikes. Glad I wasn't riding my bike down Boston when it happened.
