A tragic incident unfolded at a California train station when a brave cyclist lost his life while trying to protect a mother and her children from a knife-wielding attacker. Colden Kimber, a 28-year-old New York native, was waiting at a Muni stop in San Francisco with his girlfriend on July 26 when he witnessed a man, identified as Sean Collins, harassing the family.

Collins, in a fit of rage, began shouting threats at the mother and her children, prompting Kimber to step in and shield them from harm. Without warning, Collins stabbed Kimber in the neck with a six-inch blade, causing fatal injuries. The San Francisco State University student succumbed to his wounds after undergoing surgery at San Francisco General Hospital.

Kimber, known for his kind and protective nature, was deeply cherished by his loved ones. His mother, Lara Litchfield-Kimber, expressed her devastation over the senseless act of violence that claimed her son’s life. A GoFundMe campaign was launched to support the family in their time of grief, raising over $91,000 in donations.

The perpetrator, Collins, was apprehended shortly after the incident and charged with murder. Surveillance footage captured the brutal attack, providing crucial evidence for the investigation. Kimber, who was studying kinesiology and working at a local bike shop, was described as a positive influence by his colleagues and friends.

His passion for cycling stemmed from a selfless act of participating in a triathlon on behalf of his mother, who was battling cancer at the time. Kimber’s love for biking was a defining aspect of his personality, with friends fondly recalling their “Colden sightings” whenever he was spotted riding around the city.

In honor of Kimber’s memory, a memorial bike ride has been organized for September 7th to celebrate his life and legacy. Meanwhile, Collins is scheduled to appear in court for his arraignment on August 14th, facing the consequences of his heinous actions. The community mourns the loss of a beloved cyclist who selflessly sacrificed his own safety to protect others.
