The bicyclist who was killed in a collision with a truck in downtown Minneapolis this week had stolen the bike a couple of hours earlier, police said Wednesday...I was going to add a wry comment re karma, but have read that the term should not be used too lightly.
At the time he was hit, Berry had with him a backpack that contained bolt cutters, Garcia said.
Berry and a Quicksilver Express Courier delivery truck were southbound on 1st Avenue when the truck turned right, striking the cyclist while he was in a designated bike lane on the right side of the road, police said.
Berry's criminal history in Minnesota includes convictions stretching back to 1996 for burglary, domestic abuse, drunken driving, disorderly conduct and assault.

Bicyclist killed in a collision
But there's a twist to the story...
The word "karma" may be overused, but "schadenfreude" may not be....
