Fatal Accident Left One Dead in Dallas

Dallas, TX (9/25/2020) – A semi pulling two tractor-trailers overturned and left one person dead on Interstate 30.

The accident happened just before 5 a.m. A semi-truck overturned, causing the top and side of one trailer to tear and spill contents out onto the roadway.  This happened due to an accident involving the semi and a minivan. Investigators believe the minivan was trying to merge onto the highway when the vehicle was hit by the tractor-trailer.

The driver of the semi was trapped in his rig. Responders were able to get the man, 64, out of the semi. He was pronounced dead at a local hospital. 

The driver of the minivan, a 21-year-old woman, was also taken to the hospital. The extent of her injuries isn’t known.

Crash investigators will review all factors that may have led up to the accident and police reports will be made available in fourteen days.
