Written by editor
Thursday, 24 July 2008
A RUDE AWAKENING FOR SOME VICTORIA RESIDENTS. AN SUV CRASHES INTO A TREE IN THE FRONT YARD OF A HOME IN THE COUNTRY CLUB AREA.
POLICE SAY THEY RESPONDED TO THE ACCIDENT SCENE AND THE DRIVER OF THE S-U-V WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL FOR INJURIES.
BUT, WHEN THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER WAS HOOKING UP THE VEHICLE TO HAUL IT AWAY, HE HIT SOME EXPOSED ELECTRICAL WIRES IN THE GROUND AND WAS SHOCKED. HE WAS THEN RUSHED TO THE HOSPITAL.
POLICE THEN CALLED OUT ELECTRIC CREWS TO TURN OFF THE POWER IN THE AREA AND A SECOND TOW TRUCK DRIVER WAS CALLED IN TO MOVE THE VEHICLE.
NO WORD ON THE CONDITIONS OF EITHER MAN TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL.
