And I mean both the story and the reporting of it.

SAN JACINTO, Calif. A sport utility vehicle fatally struck a 68-year-old San Jacinto man in a motorized wheelchair as he crossed a street, according to the coroner's office.

The accident occurred about 4:45 p.m. Saturday on San Jacinto Avenue just north of Midway Street. He was declared dead at Hemet Valley Medical Center about 6:30 p.m., according to the coroner's office.

The man's name was withheld pending notification of next of kin. Hemet sheriff's station deputies were handling the investigation.

There is, of course, and obvious question to be asked -- was the SUV operating independently, or was there a driver behind the wheel? What did the driver look like? What did the SUV look like? Did anyone get the plates? Frankly, this reporting is simply awful -- and hardly does justice to the investigation of this poor man's death.
