73 Year Old Man Killed After Standing on I-44

A 73-year old Charles Bartlett was struck and killed while standing in front of on-coming traffic on I-44 near St. James, MO.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says Charles Bartlett of St. James was struck Monday night. The patrol says he was hit by a car as he stood in the eastbound passing lane near St. James, and died at the scene.

It wasn’t clear why Bartlett was in the driving lane of the interstate

So is this like a fad now or something? A woman also was killed yesterday crossing Kings Highway on foot.

We feel, for the general safety of the public, that maybe we should all just cross busy roads and highway at appropriate places and instead bring back slap bracelets.
