CA Tow Truck Driver Killed

Sad news out of CA... Here's an excerpt from The Sacramento Bee. Read the rest here.

The tow truck, which was not towing a vehicle, had pulled to the shoulder between the Newcastle exit and the turnoff for Highway 193 about 3 p.m., said CHP Officer Kelly Baraga.

The driver, a 42-year-old Bakersfield man whose name was withheld pending notification of relatives, was outside his vehicle when the big rig drifted onto the shoulder, striking him and his truck, she said. Milca Aguilera, 23, of Sylmar, who was standing with him, was taken to Sutter Roseville Medical Center as a precaution, Baraga said.
