Alcohol may have played a role in a deadly bicycle accident in northeast Harris County late Sunday night {May 23, 2004}
Carrol Keplinger, 61, died after a GMC Jimmy hit him around 11 p.m. in the 900 block of Freeport.
A friend walking along side the victim witnessed the accident.
Officials said the driver of the sport utility vehicle stopped to help, but the cyclist was already dead.
