New York Post Updated: Wed., Apr. 21, 2010, 10:35 AM home 1 killed, 3 hurt in funeral procession crash Last Updated: 10:35 AM, April 21, 2010 Posted: 10:34 AM, April 21, 2010 LEYDEN, N.Y. — Authorities say a motorcyclist was killed and three others were injured when their bikes crashed during a funeral procession in upstate New York. The Lewis County Sheriff's Department says the crash occurred Tuesday afternoon in the town of Leyden, 50 miles northeast of Syracuse. Deputies say several vehicles in the funeral procession had to make a sudden stop when a car turned into its path. Police say three motorcycles in the procession were unable to stop in time and their drivers had to lay down their bikes. Officials say 63-year-old Terrence O'Rourke of Boonville died from head injuries he suffered in the accident. Three other motorcyclists riding on two bikes were treated at a Utica hospital and released. The driver of the car hasn't been charged. NEW YORK POST |

Vanilla Wafer. You can't blame the driver of the car. How was he supposed to know there would be other people on the road that day? JC
