Bullets riddle truck — and man — in city

A young man staggered from a bullet-ridden pickup truck and died on the streets of St. Louis early today.

It just goes on and on. And on. And, uh, on.

I actually take less pleasure from criticizing Harry Levins’ awful crime blotter writing than it likely appears…but really, this is the sort of stuff you’d expect from an eccentric tabloid, not a city’s only daily. But maybe that’s the standard now at the P-D.
