Man down.

Guys and gals, we have a fellow shooter down. A buddy of mine and employee of my fathers was in Ohio with our heavy tow truck and was run over by a 18yo in a one ton truck. He has significant leg injuries, likely will lose one but maybe both feet.

Mark had a blowout on a drive tire and was attempting to remove it when the truck ran over his legs that were on the shoulder side of the white line. It is a sad thing to hear of another company that had this happen, but this is the first time for us in 37 years of being in business.

Heres to hoping for a speedy recovery!

Here is the article, and I stand corrected. It was an F250, so a 3/4 ton truck. OHP told me it was a F350 at the scene, he must have been mistaken or didn't know the difference.

I know it makes me a .... to say this but for the love of god people, just ruin the rim and keep moving to get to a safe place to change the tire, even if you ruin a $500 wheel isn't your life worth more???
