Irony and Attemped Murder

Who ever said that God doesn't have a keen sense of humor is a moron. Just look at what he did:
A CALIFORNIAN man who tried to kill his girlfriend by leaving her in a car parked across railway lines was himself killed when an oncoming train hurled the car into him as he fled.

His girlfriend survived, the Associated Press reported.

The man drove the car to the head of a line of traffic stopped at a level crossing in the San Fernando Valley neighbourhood of Sunland on Monday, police spokesman Mike Lopez said.

The man, who was seen arguing with the woman, then parked the car on the tracks and jumped out, leaving her behind, Mr Lopez said.

A 450-tonne commuter train hit the rear of the car, launching it into the man.

The girlfriend, who was injured , was taken to hospital in a stable condition.

"She gets hit by a train and lives. He gets hit by his own car and he dies,'' Mr Lopez said.

I love irony, and I love to see criminals get theirs, and the way that this slimeball got his, is one for the books.

I wonder how the corner will write this one up - Car accident? Death by flying car? Attempted Murder Backfired? or Death by Stupidity?
