Fire trucks, life-flight, ambulances everywhere, then I get home in the Ranch Club, and now, fire trucks and ambulances are coming in here in droves, what the heck is going on? :shrug:
Wow... Arkie sure was right about those wind advisories...
A little off topic but the wind knocked over my trash can. It was pretty heavy.
Hopefully the driver is ok.
I thought the trash truck driver was airlifted. A comment from a Baynet reader:I had just left Dowell and pulled onto RT 4. As I was getting close to 760 and 4 I suddenly see a red trash truck turning to the right at a high rate of speed and a pick up truck that had been turning left from the south bound side. The trash truck rolled and spilt apart.
Pulled over, called 911, and helped until Police and the volunteers started showing up.
Prayers to the guy that was trapped in the trash truck. Believe it or not, the other person in the trash truck was ejected but the only injury he had was his scuffed shirt. I'm sure once the rush runs through his system he'll feel it.

This accident was serious. The roll-off dumpster came off the truck (?) and landed on a passenger truck. I believe the person did not make it. The helicopter landed in the ranch club. I am at a loss for words. It sucks that a innocent person was affected ..
I've heard all about the trash truck and I heard the "deck fire" call go out but I didn't hear too much about what happened on Rousby Hall just down past Fastop. The only thing I did hear was that it was a high speed motorcycle crash but nothing else. It looked and sounded pretty bad. Didn't know if anyone had any more info and if the driver was ok?
