Longtime Chicago theater actress Molly Glynn died Saturday, a day after she was hit by a falling tree while biking on a north suburban forest preserve trail, officials and Glynn’s husband said.
…Glynn, 46, was riding her bike about 3 p.m. Friday with her husband, fellow theater actor Joe Foust, when the pair were caught in the fast-moving afternoon storm, Foust said in a Facebook message today. Heavy winds uprooted a tree onto the path where she was riding in Erickson Woods near Northfield, authorities said.
My heart goes out to the family, and those who loved her work. Still for the sake of this blog, I will note it was not a “Gun Death”, so I guess a success for Chicago gun control! I mean had this been in free-state America she would have been shot by a hunter or target shooter.
Of course in reality both of such scenarios are EXTREMELY rare.
