Kyle Anger, who will be 18 next week; Alexzander Miller, 15; Trevor Gray, 15; Mikadyn Payne, 16; and Mark Sekelsky, 16, are being charged as adults, The Associated Press reported.



Ken White, 32, was killed Oct. 18 after a rock smashed through the windshield of the car in which he was a passenger while traveling on Interstate 75 in Genesee County, Michigan, authorities said.



The rock struck White in the head, knocking him unconscious, police said. He was then rushed to the Hurley Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.



A judge denied bond for the teens during a court appearance Tuesday, The Detroit News reported. Anger, who authorities say threw the rock that killed White, remains in the Genesee County Jail, and the other teens are in a juvenile detention center, the AP reported.

A really sad, and insane situation. What in the world were they thinking, dropping rocks on passing cars? There was a similar incident, years ago, in Colorado Springs, and the woman that was hit survived, but was, I think, paralyzed.

We had one here in central PA (I-80 I think near Danville) a few years back as well. She survived, but is still recovering.
