Fla. Man Plows Down Bikers, Killing Two

PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. (AP) - A man who had argued with five motorcyclists
ran them down with a stolen pickup truck, killing two of the bikers and
seriously injuring another, police said Thursday.

Witnesses told police that the driver chased the bikers about a half-mile
down a coastal highway Wednesday before hitting the victims and dragging
them along the road in this Florida Panhandle resort city.

"He pulled up behind the five motorcycles, hit the gas, and plowed right
through them," said Deputy Police Chief David Humphreys.

A woman died on the scene and a male biker was declared dead at Bay Medical
Center in nearby Panama City. Another man was taken to the hospital in
critical condition but upgraded to serious Thursday, Humphreys said.

The other bikers got back on their motorcycles and chased the truck. They
alerted an officer in a marked Environmental Protection vehicle who joined
the pursuit.

The driver of the pickup rammed the officer's vehicle after driving onto a
dead end road, Humphreys said. "The officer held the subject at gunpoint,
when a shot went off," he said, but he added that no one was injured during
the struggle, which drew a crowd from a nearby bar and mobile home park.

Timothy E. Pilgren, 26, of Texarkana, Ark., was charged with two open counts
of murder. An open count lets authorities hold a suspect until prosecutors
or a grand jury determine the degree of the alleged crime.

The victims' identities were being withheld pending notification of their
families, but Humphreys said they all were from Michigan.

The argument began when Pilgren tried to sell "silver certificates" to the
bikers and then made a derogatory comment, Humphreys said. He said one of
the bikers punched Pilgren in the chest before they rode off.

And what's the dig about "cage" owners?
Don't you own a car as well?

What pisses me off is that YOU use that term "Cage whacko", when he,
the charged person, "Tim E. Pilgren," was a MURDERING WHACKO.
The fact that he could operate a car has nothing to do with the price
of cheese.


Hmmmm. Not to glorify or justify lil Tim's rage, but I do have to
wonder just what happened to make that troubled puke want to mutilate
these people.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
