"Candidate strikes students after debate
A candidate for state representative in Massachusetts who had just left a debate accidentally struck two college students, sending both to the hospital. Police said independent Fred Bahou struck the University of Massachusetts Lowell students with his minivan after leaving Thursday night’s debate at the school. Bahou told The Sun of Lowell that he was traveling at ‘‘a slow rate of speed’’ when ‘‘all of a sudden they just appeared.’’ The students were taken to Lowell General Hospital with minor injuries. Bahou had just finished debating Democrat Rady Mom (AP)."
