Khaliyal Burney, an alleged motorist who hit an 8-year-old girl playing on her bike in Charlotte, North Carolina, has been charged with death by vehicle and other charges. His bail was set at $1,000 even though he had a revoked license and numerous other charges related to the incident. The girl, named Nyomi Summers, died after being transported to a local hospital. Burney was not driving drunk or under the influence of drugs, but was charged with driving while his license was revoked, no liability insurance, failure to register, and a fictitious registration. Despite this outrage, the man accused of stabbing and killing a Ukrainian refugee woman on a Charlotte train was found incompetent to stand trial and could be refiled if he ever regains his capacity to be tried.
