Contact us about a "lost load accident" at 1-888-377-8900.

A masonry truck was eastbound when a retaining wall block flew off the truck's trailer and struck a westbound minivan on the passenger side. The block went through the windshield, instantly killing the young man.

The driver of the landscape truck was not injured nor was the driver of the minivan. The passenger who died has a 17-year-old.

The initial investigation found that the masonry block was not completely strapped down. At the time the block went through the minivan's windshield, it was moving at nearly 110 mph.
