a 13 year old boy was run over by a semi at a major intersection today. the semi made contact with his whole body from north to south, died instantly. unclear who was at fault yet. his bicycle was crumpled and stuck up under the semi. prayers for his family and the other school kids he was friends with. a few years ago, the people that rent our other house of the farm, their 14 year old road his bike out onto the highway from the driveway and was struck by a semi, the semi doing approx. 60 MPH, the boys bike went under the tractor/trailer, his shoes left his feet on contact, the boy was imbedded in the radiator of the tractor, but only sustained some bruises and a cut finger. no other injuries. no one can figger that out at all, he was taken to the hospital and x-rayed and checked all over, and no damage has shown up interally to this day. he was on Gods watch list that day!

Sad to hear of that. Accidents involving kids are the worst ones to work. God was certainly watching over the one that survived what should have been a fatal impact with the front of a semi. Miracles do happen!

Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God.

Sometimes I think it is a miracle that any of us survived our teenage years.🤔

That is just aweful! Add the fact that the 10 year old girl in Papillion died after being hit in an intersection, plus another one hit in Plattsmouth last evening! Not sure what is causing all of this! Drivers are devastated too I am sure!

Prayers for the families in Neb.
Would like prayers for a family here, that a 13 year old learns from his mistake. Took the atv to go across the field help gramps and granny with chores. But went for a little extra joy ride down a dirt road lost control. Got thrown clear but atv totaled as it went over cliff into dry river bed about 60 feet down.

The fastest animal on Earth is a Toddler escaping their Mother's grasp. I resemble that remark, carry the scars at Forehead and back of skull to prove it. My dear mother watched myself at three decide to go visit the neighbor ACROSS THE STREET just as the Western Cartridge Company shift let out. She watched in horror trying to catch my fast little butt get tagged by a 1951 Fleetline Chevrolet and sent flipping as a dime into the curb. Yes I did survive, none the worse for wear but CAN ATTEST children Will Do the worst thing available at the most inappropriate time. Prayers for the Parents.

I don't know what was going on in Longmont, CO this evening but I don't think I've ever seen four State Patrol cars running hot (I'm guessing 80MPH) towards town. I was at our tractor show three miles south of town. Maybe our retired SP member will know tomorrow.
