Early this morning one of the GMR locals, Eli, Was run over
by a motorcycle. What happened this morning was scary
and a wake up call. I went though dead mans and had 3
guys on road king Harleys coming up on me. I was in my
lane but still was close. All I could think of when exiting
the turn was I hope eli stays in his lane. at that moment I
heard the crash looked behind me and saw one of the
motorcycle guys go down and jimmy pulling over to make
sure everyone was ok. I got to the bottom and alittle while
later jimmy pulled up. He told me Eli had a broken leg but
was ok and conscious. After that we split. Now it may
seem kinda s#@!y that we left him there, but mind you
last week a sherif who frequently hassles us on the hill
showed up and threatened that next time he caught
anyone on a skate up there everyone was going to jail! So
the fact that eli knew this, he was conscious and the
motorcyclists called the cops and ambulance so our best
judgement was to leave the scene. Better to split with his
car and belongings than to stick around get arrested and
have no way to notify his family. Our decision payed off.
We retreated to the neighborhoods below the hill. I
Looked through his cell phone and got a hold of his mom
to let him know what was going on. We watched as
firedept. trucks, ambulances, sherifs and hwy patrol
rushed up the hill. Soon after he was airlifted out. We
asked a bystander where the nearest hospital was and
went there. After waiting and no arival I made some more
phone calls to his mom and according to her he was
airlifted to USC and sustained a compound fracture to his
right leg. That was this morning. I spoke with his mom a
few hours ago and he is also looking at a small break in
his other leg and went through surgery this afternoon.
This is pretty serious people. STAY OFF THE HILL FOR AT
LEAST A MONTH!!! If it wasn't hot with cops before it is
now!!! AND STAY ON YOUR LANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best of wishes to Eli and I hope he makes a solid recovery.
