friend had motorcycle accident while carrying, police found gun

ok, so there is more to the story.
Young married guy had motorcycle listed on craigslist, 2 guys come over at night to look at the bike, my buddies wife tells him maybe he should take a gun just to be safe.
While looking at the bike they decide it would be better to get the bike to a place with better lighting and the ability to ride it.
My friend rides the bike to a large parking lot and the 2 guys follow, the reasonable thing to do while riding a bike that isn't licensed, with no insurance and when the rider has no motorcycle operating permit is to go REALLY FAST, now remember he has a concealed handgun on his person.

In this large parking lot there is a median, but he didn't see it, hit it going north of 45mph and flies across the parking lot.
These two guys freaked out called 911, cops and ambulance show up, they find the gun (friend has no CCW)

the cops let it go, becaues of the situation, friend once he woke up while laying on the parking lot explained these guys showed up at night, etc, and cops agreed he had a resonable concern for his safety and issued no tickets of any kind for the gun

while this is a stupid stupid sad story, I'm glad to hear the police were reasonable.

NE Bull:
Good to here the "Reasonable Person Defense" clause still holds out (at least this instance)

thirtydaZe:
Other than the part where your buddy wiped out, that is actually a good story.

I'm surprised and happy to hear it.

unfy:
Impressed, but I'd be willing to venture this is more the exception than the rule :(

Kendahl:
Where did this happen? I would be surprised if it were Omaha or Lincoln.
