D is going to have a gnarly scar....Last night my friend Darin was riding home, and was hit by car. The douche bag didn't bother to stop and while Darin was unconscious, someone stole his bike. He said that he doesn't remember anything. He was hit in the area of South 5th and Annie.Darin guesses he was out for about an hour, in this time period, his bike was jacked.
