Ethiopia - Tow truck operator dead following freak accident

A 54-year-old Toronto tow truck operator from Ethiopia is dead following an accident on Weston Road.

The driver had stopped in a live lane near Fenmar Drive in the city's far northwest and gotten out of his vehicle at about 1 p.m.

A van, which had been travelling in the same direction, slammed into the tow truck. The driver was pinned between the two vehicles.

Paramedics could not revive him and they declared him dead at the scene.

That is a horrible way to die. On the positive side though, he probably died without much pain.

Rest in peace.

ohhhh My God he should go by passenger side instead of driver side and got killed. It is a lesson for you guys who don't care on free way. I heard the same story many times... Humble Ethiopians please be careful.

The driver of the truck should be sued for not stopping, for crying out loud, was he blind that he couldn't see the tow-truck in front of him! It is a sad news indeed.

It is sad indeed to learn a hard working person died to an accident like this one. the thing is, no one can control such an accident by prediction . But it is always helpful to learn from this horrible phenomenon and try to avoid negligence, especially on the freeway.
My deepest sympathy for his family.
