The rider probably didn't hear the sirens and it created this unfortunate accident. We have a saying "Loud Pipes Save Lives" which in most cases can be more true than not but this is one of those very sad exceptions.   http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/eekitsaspider/6618/#c_66725 http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/eekitsaspider/6618/#c_66725 I am very sad that a fellow rider has been killed by a senseless accident the way I read it is the rider entered the intersection and the police car didn't see him.

It saddens me to hear that a man died in this accident. My mom came over the pick up my older son and she said it took her 30 minutes to get here. I had no idea what possibly could of happened. I will keep the gentleman's family in my prayers and also the officer.

They did this without any facts other then what was posted on here. That blogger then deleted their post. I hope everyone involved in this accident get thru this. That includes the riders family, the cop, the emergency responders, and the bystanders that rendered aid.  Lets not put any blame out there before the investigation is done.  A big Thank You needs to go out to all the people that stopped to help. People that stopped only because another person was in need. They helped because they cared, not for fame, not for money, just because! http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/eekitsaspider/6618/#c_66773 http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/eekitsaspider/6618/#c_66773 My post above was directed to a blogger that blamed the officer for the accident.

Yes, I agree Shane.  As human beings we are sometimes quick to jump to conclusions before the facts are in, but it is so important to have compassion instead of judgement.  And regardless of who is at fault it is definitely unfortunate, and I certainly pray for all  those affected by this incident.   http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/eekitsaspider/6618/#c_66775 http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/eekitsaspider/6618/#c_66775 Yes, I agree Shane.  As human beings we are sometimes quick to jump to conclusions before the facts are in, but it is so important to have compassion instead of judgement.  And regardless of who is at fault it is definitely unfortunate, and I certainly pray for all  those affected by this incident.   Yes, I hope no one jumps to conclusions to fast. Keep in mind that this is Tehachapi and the rumor mill is in full force here. My brother was involved in an accident about a year and a half ago(maybe 2 years.) where pedestrians were involved. Luckily no  one died as a result of this accident, but it was touch and go for a few days. He was not at fault, but the false accusations and rumors almost broke him.  Please just keep in mind that this poor mans family is having to deal with a horrible loss and the officer is in a living HELL right now. TRUST ME! Right now the best thing for us to do is keep everyone involved in our thoughts and prayers. http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/eekitsaspider/6618/#c_66838 http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/eekitsaspider/6618/#c_66838 Yes, I hope no one jumps to conclusions to fast.
