Man Killed After Trying to Help Accident Victims in Arlington, Texas
In a terrible tragedy that happened early in the morning of September 20, a man who was trying to help accident victims on 1-20 in Arlington was struck by a passing car and killed.
Two people involved in the initial multiple car crash were injured and taken to John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth. The accident occurred on westbound 1-20 between Collins Street and Matlock Road. According to police, the driver who hit and killed the man was not speeding or driving while intoxicated.
I hate hearing about things like this. This man was concerned with the safety of those involved in the wreck, and died as a result of his good intentions. Since police said this driver wasn’t speeding or drunk, it seems like just a terrible accident. Always stay alert while driving and keep a look out for any accidents or vehicles by the side of the road, because as this case shows, it is not only the car crash itself than can be deadly, but simply being out of your car in the vicinity of the accident.
