An alleged drunk driver is accused of running down a single mother on an e-bike in Florida and driving for blocks with her stuck in his windshield before being arrested at a liquor store.
Xavier Omar Rigby, 22, was driving a 2021 Nissan Altima “at a high rate of speed” in St. Petersburg on Saturday when he allegedly struck 38-year-old Kjersten Aileen-Hermance Strang as she was riding her e-bike in the curbside lane, according to authorities.

Rigby allegedly slammed into the rear of Strang’s bike with so much force that it sent her flying into the windshield of his Altima.
Police said he continued to drive for eight blocks with Strang hanging out of the windshield before her body was “dislodged from the vehicle” and fell into the road.
The suspect left the scene without calling 911 or waiting for first responders.
Strang was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
St. Petersburg police officers caught Rigby a short while later at a liquor store about a mile away from where the crash happened, showing “signs of impairment.”

He was charged with leaving the scene of a crash involving death, vehicular homicide leaving the scene, and DUI manslaughter.
During his first court appearance Monday, Judge Elizabeth Zuroweste wasted no time blasting Rigby’s criminal past and his part in the deadly crash, Fox 13 reported.
“Here you are with a prior leaving the scene [of a crash with property damage] from 2022,” Zuroweste said.
“Then, in 2024, the state was generous enough to reduce your DUI to a reckless [driving charge]. {snip}”
