Shelbyville, Tennessee



Rescue workers prepare to remove an accident victim from under his truck on Horse Mountain Road west of Wartrace Saturday afternoon. The truck's driver, who was identified by authorities as Walter Donnie Lloyd, 55, of Coop Road, was thrown from and pinned under the truck. Bedford County Sheriff's Department personnel said it appeared Lynch had lost control on a sharp, hilly curve. The crash site is between Railroad Road and Wartrace-Bell Buckle Road.

The jacks were used to lift the vehicle off the victim.  It went smoothe as silk despite the incorrect setup.  I have been drawing our presentation on the board this morning to help the guys get it figured out.  They said there were a ton of bystanders, highway patrol, deputies, and EMS there that were just impressed with the jacks when they removed the body.
