The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and San Gabriel Police Department said in a joint statement that Bryson was cooperative wad detectives. He was cited for felony hit and run but was not booked into jail because he had been admitted to the hospital. His condition was not known.
"The investigation is in its preliminary stages," the statement said.
Bryson was driving a Lexus in the 400 block of South San Gabriel Boulevard shortly after 5 p.m. Saturday, when he allegedly rear-ended a Buick as it was waiting for a train to pass, according to the statement,
After briefly stopping to talk to the three men inside the Buick, Bryson left the location in the Lexus and then struck the Buick a second time, authorities said. The men followed Bryson's car and called 911 to ask for police assistance.

...Faux Noise will be all over this one that somehow Obama's "socialist" policies were responsible for road rage or maybe Bryson was doing some test on the super secret Kenyan/Indonesian "moooslim" plan...there's gotta be some political hay to be made of this
