Clampers Involved In Fatal Accident



E Clampus Vitus is in mourning as one of its members was killed and several others were injured in a morning traffic accident Sunday in the South Sacramento area.

Action News Now reported:

PARADISE, Calif. - The Clampers (E Clampus Vitus or ECV) of Paradise are grieving Sunday after a morning freeway incident on Highway 50 in South Sacramento that ended with the death of one of their members and major injuries for four other Clampers.

The ride was held by the Vituscan Riders, made up of Clampers who love to ride motorcycles who live in Sacramento or other parts of Northern California. 

The California Highway Patrol (CHP) told our sister NBC-affiliate station (KCRA) that the crash involved 13 motorcycles and a car. It occurred at approximately 8:45 a.m. on Sunday, January 12, 2025.

KCRA said the CHP told them that five people were transported for medical care with major injuries, and that one person died at the hospital.

On Sunday the Paradise Clamper Humbug (president) Dustin Hawley told Action News Now that the motorcycle rider who died was a Paradise Clamper named Brian Shaw. He was 45 years old.

Do Not Feed Yellowstone National Park Bears!

It has been forbidden to feed bears in Yellowstone National Park for decades. But some stupid people are not heeding the warnings and are doing so anyway.

Feeding Yellowstone bears is a death sentence, for the bears.

Action News Now reported:
YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, Wyo. - Yellowstone Park officials are sending out the obligatory warning, do not feed the bears. 
It turns out some people are not heeding that warning and it’s becoming more obvious as bears start approaching more vehicles in the park. 
When that happens, they have to take action. 
Three people have been killed by bears in Yellowstone since 2012.

Why is it a death sentence for bears that have been fed by park visitors? Because once a bear becomes conditioned to human foods, park officials have to remove and euthanize that bear.
