Hudson Valley Oil Delivery Driver Trapped Under Truck

On Halloween, an oil deliveryman was hospitalized after a horrific accident.

On the morning of Thursday, October 31, police responded to an emergency involving an oil company employee at a home in the Hudson Valley. According to the press release, the incident occurred around 09.30 in the morning after fuel was delivered to a residence.

Police say they found an unconscious man with multiple injuries pinned under a commercial oil delivery truck. Strangely, this was the second incident this week of a person being trapped under a truck.

Second Person Caught Under a Truck This Week

The first incident occurred Tuesday afternoon when police were called to Tilly’s Diner in Monticello. After a 70-year-old customer was run over by his own vehicle and was dragged across the parking lot. In this accident, the elderly man reportedly got out of his own truck to check the rear when the vehicle accelerated in reverse.

Oil Delivery Man Trapped Under His Own Truck

Thursday’s incident is similar to the crash at Monticello. Following investigation by Haverstraw Police, it was determined that the man had attached a hose to the back of his truck following a delivery to a home on Buckingham Court in Pomona. The report states that the truck was parked on a hill and began rolling backwards when the man was directly behind it.

Fire and emergency personnel were able to extricate the driver from underneath the truck and transport him to Westchester Medical Center. His condition has not yet been disclosed.

The Ministry of Transport is inspecting the vehicle to determine the cause of the accident.
