RESPONDING FIRE APPARATUS RUNS OVER AND KILLS A MAN LYING IN THE STREET

A responding Winnipeg (Canada) fire apparatus ran over and killed a man who was lying in a Winnipeg street early this morning. The apparatus was traveling with its lights and siren activated around 0420 hours when the fire crew encountered something unexpected in the road. There was an object in the roadway, the truck struck the object and it turned out the object was a male. The male, in his 40’s, was sadly killed. Cops said it’s unknown at this time why the man was lying in the road. By all accounts, this was unavoidable.
