Found out when I stopped for lunch. It was announced on the TV that they had on in the restaurant. Very sad news, especially to hear of the young ones who lost their lives.
I heard someone saying that in a way traffic killed Kobe Bryant because he had talked about using a helicopter so he could be a part of his kids lives without always being caught in LA traffic.
