Boy killed in mountain biking accident named
NZPA Last updated 12:02 20/05/2010SharePrint Text Size Relevant offers
Police have named the 11-year-old boy who died after a mountain
biking accident in Gisborne yesterday.

Leo Te Kira was riding on a mountain bike trail with an adult and two
friends yesterday afternoon.

He was cycling down a steep part of the track when he crashed and
suffered serious injuries.

Police said Leo lost control on a steep decline and went over a bank.
He had been wearing his cycle helmet at the time of the crash.

The adult with the boys found Leo and called for help shortly after.

He was taken to Gisborne hospital but died about two hours later.

Police were "keeping an open mind" about whether charges would be
laid, senior sergeant Maui Aben said.

"We are still investigating the crash and whether or not charges are
pending is dependant on the outcome."

Bruce Jenson is a blood thirsty moron who delights in seeing wolves eating a
live deer. He is nothing but a frustrated hunter who pretends he knows
something about wildlife when in reality he does not know his own ass.

Very good, Mike. Another media piece from New Zealand.

I wonder what impact your new crusade to keep the spotlight of public opinion
focused on activities there will have.

Now, for your enjoyment, here's a media piece from a little closer to home...

Whale capsizes canoe off Mass. coast, drowning man

The Associated Press
PROVINCETOWN, Mass. —

A man canoeing in the ocean waters off Massachusetts has
died after the vessel came in contact with one or more
whales and capsized.

The accident occurred Wednesday morning in Cape Cod's
Provincetown Harbor. A second man in the canoe survived.

The Coast Guard says a vessel owned by a local boat
rental company pulled the men from the water, but
paramedics were unable to revive one of them. The
man's name was not immediately released.

The survivor told authorities that the 12-foot canoe
came in contact with at least one whale that surfaced.
Investigators believe it was a pod of pilot whales - or
possibly dolphins.

The Cape and Islands District Attorney's office is investigating.
