At 2:25 am on Monday, December 16, 2019, Merry Daye, a black woman aged 45 and a male were riding their bikes south on Cameron Road. Her bike had a trailer, and she was working on it while in the bike lane. The man was on the sidewalk.

For her, family and friends, it will be Christmas without Merry. Sources: CBS Austin, KXAN, Austin Police Department …
