Drunk hit-and-run driver hits crowd of pedestrians in downtown Austin

Authorities said the suspect in the case ran the red light at the intersection and was chased down by a witness for nearly a dozen blocks before he was detained and police arrived. Nicholas Ray Colunga, 22, was in Travis County jail today on $60,000 bail, jail records show, and is charged with intoxication assault and two counts of failure to stop and render aid, police have said.

This is the kind of thing I think about when I hear, "Cyclists should follow the laws just like drivers do!"
