    My buddy was on his way to work and the newspaper guy crossed the centerline and hit him head on. WTF!!!! The taco is dead as you can see. He broke all the bones in his ankle and his foot. He was trapped in the truck for about 45mins. He will be ok in a few months. His dog was in the extended cab and made it out without a scratch.
