Spirit Of Edward Kennedy Survives In Road Crash

6989206-300x2111EDWARD Kennedy did much good in his lifetime. He also left a woman to die in a car, namely Mary Jo Kopechne. One life lived. One life lost.

Now a man of less wealth and privilege than Ted Kennedy has done something similar.

A Beach man was in jail Friday, charged with DUI and felony hit-and-run after a crash in which his girlfriend was left trapped in waist-deep water, police said.

Police said Michael Brandon Walck, 23, lost control and ran into a ditch on Sandbridge Road early Friday morning.

His girlfriend told police that he was drinking and ran from the scene, according to Adam Bernstein, a police spokesman.

She died?

It took about an hour to remove her from the wreckage, Bernstein said. She was flown to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital with a leg injury, he said.

Officers found and arrested Walck. He was being held without bond in the Virginia Beach jail.

Any guessing that he’ll get off and go on to lead a life in the public eye?
