MILWAUKEE, WI – The Milwaukee County Transit officials confirmed that 31-year-old Brandon Turner was going 100 mph when he ran a red light and hit a bus, claiming his life and trapping one man underneath the bus.
To recap, this crash happened before midnight at North 35th Street and Capitol Drive. New details from WISN said that it was a tow truck driver, identified as Tony Evans from Always Towing, who was able to spring into action when he saw that the man was trapped.
Evans was able to grab the tow truck and center it so that the bus could lean against the truck.
