Just a mile south of Universal Studios, on the northbound side of the 101 (Hollywood Freeway) sits a house. Yes, I said on the freeway. Not next to it, not near it, ON it (in the right lane, to be exact).
Nine days ago homeowner Patrick Richardson and his fiancee Kimberly Bigman were attempting to [...]
