As with the other weekend pedestrian fatality in Gainesville, no information is provided about charges etc on this one. Of course this fatality is tragic. Another local news site says that the 19-year old Gainesville male driver in Newberry had a 15-year old female passenger from Lake City, maybe he was blinded by prospect of dashboad-light paradise and authorities don’t want to talk about it.
Paradise by the dashboard light? How dare you 🙂
