Police: Woman Hits Bicyclist, Strips, Flees In Bystander's Van (yes, Florida was involved)


"JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Police recently arrested a woman they said deliberately hit a bike rider and crashed two separate cars, and then ran off naked.

Holly Highfield faces DUI and several other charges after witnesses said she intentionally struck a bicyclist, took off her clothes and ran around the crash scene, then drove off the road while attempting to leave the scene in someone else's vehicle.

Police said the incident occurred Sunday evening while Highfield, 34, was driving three children, ages 10 to 14." read the whole thing

1. That article is chock full o' win
Intentionally crashed the SUV into a cyclist - check
Attempted grand theft auto - check
Nudity - check
Destruction of private property - check
Assaulting a police officer - check
Urinating in the back of the cop car - check

"The arrest report indicates Highfield 'appeared to be under the influence of some type of drug.'" - ya think???

2. you forgot the winningest quote of all:
The children in Highfield's car told police that she was driving north when she turned to them and said: "Do you think this biker is going to get hit? Do you have faith? Are you afraid?" They said she then steered her SUV across San Pablo and struck 55-year-old Cathy Giury riding a bicycle.

3. ...
<<officers were called to a report of an accident involving a pedestrian and a naked woman at the intersection of San Pablo Road and Pirate Court.>>

What do you suppose the response to that call was?

5. God didn't like that bicyclist
This is not the result of a random universe. Only a higher order of intelligence could have brought these events into being.
