Groom Killed Helping Motorist Stuck In Snow

A groom was killed hours after his wedding when he and a motorist stranded in snow were hit by several vehicles.

William Riley Knight, 49, was on his way from his wedding reception to a hotel with his new bride when the accident happened.

Mr Knight, from Crown Point, Indiana, stopped his truck when the couple saw a woman whose car had slid off the road into the snow.

He pulled into a nearby driveway and left his wife Nikki Knight waiting while he went to help 42-year-old Linda Darlington.

The pair were standing at the side of the road when they were struck by one vehicle and then by two more, the Lake County Sheriff's office said.

Mrs Knight, a registered nurse, said neither her husband nor Ms Darlington had pulses when she got to the accident scene. Both were pronounced dead early on Sunday morning.

She told the Chicago Sun-Times: "I went from being a newlywed to a widow in less than 48 hours - the highest high to the lowest low. It's a blur.

"He said 'we've got to stop, it's late and they need help'.

"He was the type of person who was willing to put himself on the line and support you no matter what."

Mr Knight, who went by his middle name of Riley, had served in the US Army Rangers before retiring in the mid-1990s, his ex-wife told WBBM.

He had two daughters, a stepson and stepdaughter.

All the drivers involved in the accident stayed at the scene and police said no charges had been filed.
