We were caught in the I-10 traffic jam resulting from this fatal motorcycle accident early Wednesday morning. Here's the rest of the story.

Wow,that is so sad! The poor guy mind just snapped. Sounds like it was building for a while. At least he didn't harm anyone else before his untimely demise. Condolences to his friends & family.

Suicide is always sad. It's a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

Sad....kinda looks like the Hospital made a bad call.

I didn't really know him but he reset the 'check engine' light on my new Bonnie a couple weeks ago. Seemed like a nice 'kid', everyone said he knew his way around Triumphs. I was in Alamo Wed afternoon but didn't know about the incident till I got home. Now that I think about it, folks did seem kinda down. A shame, I really feel for his wife and kids, hope they have some support during this time.

Also might be a little premature to call it suicide. He very well may have just lost it in his delusional state of mind.

there is not a good ending to this at all as I have seen this type of delusional situation before ( not mine, mind you but from others.)
Seeing this happen is like seeing a train wreck in the making. IT starts and before you know it, you see what is happening, but there isnt a way to stop it.. Once the the steps are in motion, stopping this was the hospitals call, and it failed.
sad indeed.

I once saw a guy under a *attack* and he tried to cut himeslf up in the med clinic...

two weeks later he was normal as anyone I had ever seen.. In fact, I did not know it was the same person.

makes ya wish they could have stopped this sooner.

Perhaps, but per article not sure what else this could mean:

“He kicked in the door and told his wife: ‘Today is the last day,'” said Deputy Ino Badillo, a Bexar County Sheriff's Office spokesman.
