ON STRATFORD STREET IN DETROIT (MICHIGAN) NEAR OSBORN
HIGH SCHOOL, THERE WAS A LITTLE BOY CROSSING THE STREET
COMING HOME FROM SCHOOL. SOME TEENAGER WHO HAD JUST
GOT HIS LICENSE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND THE LITTLE
BOY RAN OUT AND GOT HIT AND WAS DRAGGED DOWN THE STREET.
NOW IF ANYONE DRIVES DOWN THE STREET, THE DEAD BOY
POUNDS ON THE BOTTOM OF THEIR CAR.
