Seven Vehicle Crash Kills Man in Fort Worth, Texas

Hung Nguyen, 22, died tragically Sunday as the result of a multi-vehicle car accident in Fort Worth, TX, after a car struck him and knocked him off a bridge onto the highway below.

The wreck occurred on the bridge from southbound Loop 820 to eastbound East Freeway (I-30). Initially two vehicles had collided on the bridge due to icy conditions. A tow truck had stopped to help, and Mr. Nguyen crashed into the back of the tow truck. Another vehicle then hit Mr. Nguyen’s 2001 Honda. When Mr. Nguyen walked to the back of his vehicle to inspect the damage, a sixth car hit him and knocked him off the bridge. A seventh car then hit the sixth car involved in the accident.

According to police investigators, Mr. Nguyen fell several hundred feet to the highway below, where he was pronounced dead. My condolences go out to Mr. Nguyen’s family. This winter we have had an inordinate amount of wet and icy weather and it has caused more fatal accidents than normal.
