Man hit and killed after lying on Rt. 287

BRIDGEWATER:

A Woodbridge man died early yesterday after he exited a car and lay down on the southbound lanes of Route 287, where he was struck by a pickup truck, police said.

Gopalakri D. Ganti, 38, was a passenger in a car heading north when he demanded the driver stop so he could get out, according to authorities. After running north in the southbound lanes, he stopped to lie down on the road and was struck by truck driven by Jonathan J. Schmidt of Hightstown, police said. The incident remains under investigation, and no summonses were issued yesterday.

*One less for the gene pool!!! Darwin was right regarding natural selection.*
