Title: Bad accident near home last weekend
Post by: sprite75 on August 19, 2021, 02:54:22 PM
Last Saturday I was heading up into town and turning out of my driveway when I saw a dump truck with its box up in the air.  I didn't think too much of it at first and thought it was some construction work.  I got up to go around the truck and saw it was on fire, with something exploding on the truck right after I got around it.  I couldn't see the driver at all and thought he ran off to get some help.  Called 911 and they sent out a deputy and the fire department.  By then my dad had come up too and saw that the driver had snagged a power line with his truck, and that he was laying nearby.  Yeah it was too late to help him.  911 wanted him to go try to resuscitate the guy but dad told them he thought the guy was already gone and he didn't want to go near the truck with a downed power line laying on it.   Medical examiner called me later that night to ask some questions and confirmed the guy didn't make it.  What's really sad is that the guy's wife is going to have a baby in a few weeks.

Sorry to hear that, especially for the guy and his family.
