SF Chronicle(10-23) 19:22 PDT SAN LEANDRO --
Investigators were trying to figure out Sunday why the driver of a paratransit van, who according to his company had no criminal record, allegedly ran over and killed a member of the Hells Angels before dragging his chopper for a mile.
Eddie Hall, 31, of Oakland was booked on suspicion of murder and felony hit-and-run after Saturday's grisly collision, which left bits and pieces of motorcycle strewn across the eastbound lanes of Interstate 580 in San Leandro, forcing the temporary closure of the freeway.
"It appeared to be intentional on the van driver's part, based on physical evidence at the scene and witness accounts," San Leandro police Lt. Greg Lemmon said Sunday.
"There is no motive established. We don't know for sure why the driver chose to take the action that he did. It is extremely odd. In my 25 years, I have never seen anything like this."

Last night at 8PM during a
Two and a Half Men rerun, the local Bay Area CBS station had a breaking news crawl about I-580 being closed due to a murder investigation. I later realized it involved a Hells Angel member. Another active local Hells Angel murder case
is ongoing regarding the death of one motorcycle gang member in San Jose.
