Drunk driver kills cyclist in Buenos Aires — continues driving for 10 miles with corpse stuck in windshield

An Argentine drunk driver who killed a cyclist after hitting him with his car continued driving for 10 miles with the corpse trapped on his windscreen. Reinaldo Ricardo Rodas, 53, was killed instantly after being struck by 28-year-old Pablo Daniel Garcia's vehicle on the Panamerican highway north of Buenos Aires at 6.30am Sunday morning. News agency Telam reports Rodas' body was trapped - with his head and torso inside the vehicle, on the driver's side, and his legs on the hood. Garcia, named in Argentine media as the son of popular radio presenter Eduardo Aliverti, didn’t stop driving. It was only when he reached a toll booth that an employee alerted police and he was arrested. He was later found to be more than three times over the drink drive limit. Doctors attempted to save the victim, but he had already died.
