- Prosecutors say that Jerry Olee Lyons, the 31-year-old San Francisco man accused in last Thursday's deadly crash on Lake Merced Boulevard, "intentionally" ran a red light and was speeding at 50 to 80 miles per hour when he hit pedestrian Sheria Musyoka. Witnesses say that after sending Musyoka flying 280 feet and crashing into multiple vehicles, Lyons exited his vehicle, went to the curb, and was seen "smoking an unknown substance from a foil pipe."
