A Michigan court on Thursday heard the devastating 911 call made moments after a father-of-four was fatally struck by a rock which was dropped from an overpass and crashed through his windshield.
Kenneth White was driving south along the the Interstate 75 with friend Stephen Anthor on October 18, 2017 when their van was struck by a rock thrown from the Dodge Road overpass by five teenagers.
Attendees in Flint on Thursday listened to the 15 –minute recording between Anthor and the dispatcher as they tried to locate the gravely injured victim.
Sitting in court, defendants Mark Sekelsky, 17, and Alexzander Miller, 16, heard the recording where Anthor yells into the phone: 'I got a guy bleeding out. I got a busted windshield and my buddy's heads about gone.

Court heard heard Anthor yell into the phone about White (pictured): 'I got a guy bleeding out. I got a busted windshield and my buddy's heads about gone'
'Kenny, don't die, man. Come on Kenny, wake up man. Come on man, please. I can't get a response from him.'
Miller and Sekelsky entered manslaughter pleas as part of a deal last October. Judge Joseph J. Farah will decide if they'll be sentenced as juveniles or adults.
White's mother left the courtroom in tears while the audio of Anthor begging him to hang on played, MLive reports.
'Come on man, we got that fishing trip to go to,' he could be heard pleading.
On Thursday, the judge said: 'The presumption for an adult sentence has to be overcome.
'Which sentence might better protect the public – in the end – that's what the court's determination is all about.'
Anthor said in court 'the punishment should fit the crime' about the tragic I-75 incident
They threw three 10-to-12-inch rocks from the Dodge overpass in Michigan October 2017
As well as claiming White's life, the boulders also damaged other cars that day in October 2017
Psychologist Jennifer Zoftowski said Sekelsky – who claimed he threw rocks to fit in - would be better off being sentenced as a juvenile in order to get the help he needs to fit back into society later on. He threw two rocks.
But Genesee County Assistant Prosecutor Karen Hanson said he did not appear concerned in Snapchat messages after the incident where he told his friends to 'chill out'.
Anthor said in court: 'I think the punishment should fit the crime. You can sugarcoat it any way you want. They went and picked up the boulder. They knew what they were doing. I think it needs to be dealt with harshly. Kenneth's not coming back.'
Mikadyn Payne, 17, and Trevor Gray, 16, also pleaded guilty last year to manslaughter in White's death and were seeking probation regarding the incident in Vienna Township, 80 miles (130 kilometers) north of Detroit. They threw three 10-to-12-inch rocks.

As well as killing the father-of-four who was engaged to Aimee Cagle, they also damaged cars with the rocks.
Four months ago Kyle Anger, now 19, asked to be sentenced under manslaughter guidelines which carry up to 15 years in prison. He threw four rocks. He will be sentenced as an adult. Second-degree murder carries up to life in prison.
Anger can withdraw his plea if he gets the longer sentence.
If four of the teens accept a plea deal to testify against Anger, 10 of 11 charges could be dropped.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
