Rollover with trailer. I stopped about ( in my company explorer, I'm glad I put on good brakes) 100' from it, 5 mexicans. F350, one is probably going to die. He was ejected and the truck rolled over him, he was foaming blood at the mouth from a lung puncture, had deep lacerations to the head, probably a cracked skull. he was passed out but breathing and had a decent pulse.
It took police about 15 minutes to get to the scene, paramedics about 25, he was flight for life lifted from the nearest hospital once they got him on a strecher and in the ambulance.
None could speak english, so my original 911 call was for 3 men who were all fine, there were propane and oxygen bottles all over, so I didn't walk around untill they started going around and I had smelled around to make sure there were no leaks, one had covered the head of the very injured man, don't know why. A bilingual woman arrived and translated for me, I had ther tell the other injured man not to move, he had a broken leg and and gash on his forehead, his pulse was strong, asperation normal, was in shock.
The other man woke up and was not cohereant, and despite her yelling at him not to move he turned over. His fase was smashed, it was then the two big smears of blood on the truck side above him made sense.
Overall not the best way to start my weekend off.:confused:
