Three Cheers for the Cheerleaders

Excerpts from an AP article on CNN today entitled, "Sis, Boom, Busted"

ANN ARBOR, Michigan (AP) -- A man who left an accident scene was tracked down with the help of some cheerleaders who witnessed the crash and turned his license plate number into a cheer, police said......

According to police reports, a truck hit a car stopped at a traffic light Wednesday, and the impact forced that car into another vehicle, which then hit another one.

The truck driver, found at his home, told officers he didn't think the damage was severe enough to stop, police Lt. Mike Logghe told The Ann Arbor News.
I suppose that it is possible he saw the crowd of cheerleaders running towards his car, panicked and drove away screaming. On the other hand, I bet the jury will fiind him, G-U-I-L-T-Y.
