Runaway truck veers off
highway, kills two men
EL PASO (AP) — Two men were
killed when a 22-ton dump truck
drove off Interstate 10 and into a
motel parking lot, smashing three
parked vehicles and pinning the
men between them.
Roger White, 63, and James
Downey, 67, were standing between
their parked vehicles Wednesday
when they were crushed by the
truck, El Paso police officer Charles
Quimbley said.
Truck driver Octavio Oaxaca, 33,
told police he was driving west on I-
10 when he saw traffic slowing and
felt he couldn’t stop safely, Quimb
ley said.
Oaxaca took an exit ramp, but
found traffic backed up there as
well, Quimbley said.
“He felt he couldn’t stop in time
there, either, so he swerved onto the
right shoulder and into the motel
lot,” Quimbley said.
The truck almost tore Downey’s
1976 Ford van in half as it was
pushed toward White’s 1990 Honda
sedan.
Police believe White died instantly
when he was crushed under the van,
and Downey died of massive injuries
a short while later.
A parked 1982 Chevrolet Cavalier
also was hit by the truck.
