April may be heaven for sports fans, but it has proven to be hell for the fire service, who has responded to mass-casualty events like the Boston Marathon bombing, the Oklahoma.
Dan Wright, 71, was on the scene of an accident on I-35 just south of the new Main Street Market in West. As crews were repositioning a fire truck, Wright fell and was struck by the truck.
According to Texas DPS, Wright was tragically killed when a fire truck backed into him while the Abbott Fire Department was assisting a stranded driver.
