OMG! He was in his front yard. What the?

standing in your yard doesn't exactly qualify you as being a "pedestrian", does it? Perhaps "By stander" would have been more appropriate, as "pedestrian" implies movement, and the description in the story is "...was standing in his yard..."

just sayin', won't be too many Pulitzer's awarded at the Post...

devolver, while your comment may have merit, that is not what should be focused on in this story.

Who would think when they got up one morning and decided to take a stroll around their own yard that they would be killed? How sad, my heart goes out to the family.

Shame on you--devolver. A man lost his life and this is your comment. I love the Post and think they do a great job. In the dictionaries I checked, pedestrian means someone "on foot" so unless he was lying or sitting in his yard it is correct.

I agree with justdance - this is extemely sad and my thoughts and prayers go out to this gentleman's family.
