CORVETTE SLAMS 4-PARKED CARS

ONE MAN DEAD – ONE WOMAN INJURED
DEVELOPING STORY
Elyria – A spectacular crash Tuesday night in the 1600 block of West Ave has sent two people to the hospital – one has died from his injuries.

Police are still working to put the pieces together of the 5-car crash that apparently only had occupants in one car. Witnesses say that the red corvette had been seen “flying down West Ave” near 12th Street seconds before crashing into 4 parked cars. Battered cars and debris were strewn across the roadway and throughout yards stretching a full city block.

Even though the Corvette came to rest in the center of the road – Firefighters and Paramedics from LifeCare Ambulance found the two occupants on opposite sides of the street when they arrived on the scene. Neighbors watched as Firefighters performed chest compressions on one of the victims next to one of the damaged cars.

The vehicles sustained such heavy damage, four of the five cars had to be towed away on flat beds trucks.

at first i felt bad about my "natural selection" comment since the person was a passenger. then i reconsidered once i noticed someone on the chronicle comment section mention his criminal past. i looked this guy up, and just on the elyria muni site he has 91 yes that is 91 different cases. some of them with multiple charges. how was this guy not in jail?? i wonder how much money this guy cost tax payers over his lifetime.

Hey what's the big Idea I mean the man was the passenger. Nobody speaks about Kimberly Smith the alleged driver of the car.. Every body is so quick to point the finger because he has a criminal background,so basically if you have made any mistakes in your life then you should be DEAD. So to the person that made the comment about "Natural Selection" then why are all the Murderers,and Baby Rapers still alive? Every individual that posted a negative comment about this man do you even know him or just what he has done that you have read about.Then let's not just focus on the bad but there is always some good don't you think or are we all so closed minded?

If you would have looked most of Mr. Voorhies charges were being drunk in public...having arrested him a couple of times, I can tell you had he may have had a drinking problem, but all in all he wasn't a terrible person and didn't need to die this way.

Sometimes u have to look beyond someones past.So what he liked to get drunk..Who doesnt I knew Lemmie and regardless when u seen him he always brung a smile to someones face...And for u people to sit around lookin into someone elses faults on the damn computer and then have negative comments about it.Turn around look in the mirror and slap the shit outta urself for that one...And for the women that was drivin noone can blame her either because it's not her fault it just wasnt her time to go yet. It was Lemmies time and I'm gonna miss him 4-ever... So b4 anyone attempts to make a negative comment based on some damn pictures PLEASE go back to school and learn urself....

a few of my favorite quotes.....

"Nobody speaks about Kimberly Smith the alleged driver of the car"

she was a piece of trash too. happy now??



"So to the person that made the comment about "Natural Selection" then why are all the Murderers,and Baby Rapers still alive?"

apparently they havent been stupid enough to do 100+ miles an hour in a residental zone while under the influence and have mr. darwin's theory catch up to them.
(i know the "under the influence" thing hasnt been proven yet but come one lets be realistic here.)



"If you would have looked most of Mr. Voorhies charges were being drunk in public...having arrested him a couple of times, I can tell you had he may have had a drinking problem, but all in all he wasn't a terrible person and didn't need to die this way."

as a police officer how do you control yourself with some of these people. does it not piss you off that you have to arrest the same people over and over for the same offense only for it to be dismissed in court. then 2 weeks later he is doing it again? yes most of his charges were alcohol related, but there were a few assaults, robbery, and thefts too.



"WHAT IF IT WAS YOUR PARENT WHO WAS KILLED WOULD YOU NOT BE MAD IF SOMEONE LOOKED UP THIER RECORD"

if one of my parents had that type of record i would say good riddens.



"YOU NEED JESUS IN YOUR LIFE THATS FRIST AND FOR MOST."

no, mr. voorhies needed Jesus, not i.



"BITCH KICK BRICKS I KNEW THIS MAN."

i have no idea what this means but it was funny.



"YES HE DID DRINK"

understatement of the year.



"And for the women that was drivin noone can blame her either because it's not her fault it just wasnt her time to go yet."

your kidding right?? please explain if your not, i gotta hear this one.



"PLEASE go back to school and learn urself...."

lol!

You are kidding right, the proper spelling of the contraction you are trying to use is you're not your which is a possessive pronoun, perhaps you should return to school, LOL!!!!

No those criminals were not stupid enough to drive under the influnce at speeds over 100+ mph but, your still missing the point he was not the driver the female was.So,so what if he was intoxicated you FOOL.Also for you to say that if one of your relatives had a background such as his then you would say good riddens(who raised you)?There is no way that you can say that there is not one person in your family that does not have any issues or a habit yeah right.There is one in every family some just don't want to admit it or just don't like to.Then we have the ones that think they are to good to deal with the relatives with the problems maybe your that one.If you were to be a relative of mine I probably would not deal with you.You to me speak of someone who may have fell far from the tree or grew up in a household of no emotion or nobody to show you any in your lifetime.So sorry for you,now get over it.You know they always said that the Lord could take care of someone better than you can.They also say that the Lord does not like ugly maybe he just might not like you right now.For you to be so rude and speak of someone who has passed on to a better place you might want to watch what you say for you might be the next selected...
To end all of this let me just close my comment with this.
"JUDGE NOT LEST YOU BE JUDGED WITH THE SAME JUDGEMENT WITH WHICH YOU JUDGE"
THANK YOU

Comments directed at other posters will no longer be accepted. If you have a comment about the story itself please feel free to leave it and we will gladly accept the post. We have been pretty liberal about the comments that have been left so far due to the nature of the story and to allow people to vent. Although some of the language has been rough, we believe that it came from true emotion due to the loss of a friend.

We feel now though that any comments from here on out must be directed on the story itself – not each other.

Thanks,
