So terrible!
The man who was hauling equipment for Carrie Underwood‘s concert in Connecticut died in a fiery crash on Saturday morning.
Witnesses saw a tractor-trailer veer off the left shoulder of the highway and scrape 400 feet along the guardrail. The damage ripped open the truck’s fuel tank, diesel ignited and flames engulfed the driver’s part of the rig in flames. It then careened into a bridge abutment.
It’s been reported that the driver’s body was burned so badly the he will had to be identified by his dental records.
He was on his way to Foxwoods Casino’s MGM Grand Theater in Mashantucket. Carrie went on with her show, but sang Temporary Home as a tribute to the man.
Sad.
