“For me, trees have always been the most penetrating preachers. I revere them when they live in tribes and families, in forests and groves. And even more I revere them when they stand alone.

NYC School Teacher Biking Across Country Killed By Distracted Driver In Oklahoma: Gothamist

A 25-year-old Bronx public school teacher who had been bicycling across country to raise money and awareness about affordable housing was fatally struck by a driver in Oklahoma. The driver told authorities she was distracted by looking at her phone.

Patrick Wanninkhof and Bridget Anderson, 22, were “struck from behind by a 4-door Chevy sedan” on State Highway 152 in Washita County around 8 a.m. on Thursday, July 30. Anderson was injured while Wannikof died at the scene. The driver, Sarah Morris, 34, was not hurt and it’s unclear if she will be charged. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol’s Public Information Office has not returned our call.
