It was right outside their shop. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13173#post-160098 Wed, 23 Jul 2014 12:49:55 +0000 neddie 160098@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I heard second hand that a pensioner was killed while waiting at a bus stop in Bathgate on Saturday. A drivist failed to apply the handbrake in their Range Rover after parking and it rolled into the pensioner.</p> <p>Could not find any news articles on this after a quick Google to confirm... </p>
