Trucker Passes Out While Driving, Kills Two in Head-On Collision

A big-rig trucker passed out after choking on his lunch, veered into oncoming traffic and killed the driver and a passenger of a car heading in the opposite direct.
The truck accident took place in Davis near Old Davis Road on Highway 80. The truck driver later regained consciousness and was able to exit his truck. He suffered minor injuries. This investigation is no doubt at its very earliest stages.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims, their families and the trucker.
