We had a high school basketball player wrap himself up in tinfoil and run across the road in front of a truck. Truck ran off the road and hurt the driver.

People are idiots sometimes.....

Named after the Flathead tribe, one of the only North West tribes that did not practice head binding giving them flat (normal) heads.

It appears from the article that he was first struck by the 15 year old driver and after he was knocked down laying in the roadway the 17 year old came along and finished him off.
Drunk or otherwise, I'd bet he would have made out better with mature more experienced drivers. 15 years old out tooling around at 10:30 PM? Should have been home in bed.
