Deadly Downhill In SF

by The Editors on April 24, 2009

A 16-year-old San Francisco skateboarder is dead after hitting a curb on Sunday April 19, 2009 while skating down what the Mercury News calls a “steep hill.”

The San Mateo County Coroner’s office says 16-year-old John Pagobo died of internal injuries Monday, after he was thrown off his skateboard the day before. . . Police say the teen was thrown about 15 feet when he hit a curb while riding down the hill Sunday afternoon.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends.
