Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:

A 14-year-old boy from Nixa died over the weekend after he was hit by a car. Uli Koyoc was crossing Highway 160 at Highway CC with another rider when he was hit Friday night. . . .

Another family painfully knows all too well what Uli's family is going through. A sixteen year old Nixa boy was killed while bicycling on the roadway more than twenty years ago.

David Ulmer was killed at the same intersection in 1993, and his mother, Diane Compton, has always hoped it wouldn't happen to another family.
