OAKLAND -- In a series of incidents in the East Bay where cyclists crashed into cars, at least 12 people were hit and two were hospitalized. However, the victims claim that these were not accidental.
"I just hit it with my bike, fell off my bike," she said."Kind of registered that I was on the ground. This car sped away and, as it sped away, I heard them laughing.""It really makes your skin crawl just to think they were just driving around kind of stalking us and picking us off," She added."I think it's really important for everyone to connect the dots here and it's not just like another bike and car incident. It's a pattern of attacks.
According to Mingwei Samuel, a volunteer with the organization,"We first learned about one sort of incident Friday night and it didn't seem like a big deal at that point. When we posted about the incident on Saturday, we started getting a flood on people experiencing similar things."
