Subliminal messaging?

"Krasnopoler ran into the front passenger side of the car and landed in front of the car."

Reads one paragraph from the ABC news coverage. But don’t get so excited, if you take the paragraph above and remover the paragraph break it reads rather fairly:

"According to police, 20-year-old Nathan Krasnopoler was riding his bicycle last Saturday afternoon in a bike lane on W. University Parkway when an 83-year-old woman driving the same direction passed Krasnopoler and turned right into a driveway, crossing over the bike lane in the process. Krasnopoler ran into the front passenger side of the car and landed in front of the car."

I’m not sure there is a point to the errant paragraph break but without it it is a fair summary of the accident.

(Why do newspapers overly stress one sentence paragraphs anyway?)
