A driver was decapitated while trying to flee police in Brooklyn, when his car slammed into the back of a flatbed truck Tuesday.
The horrifically gruesome wreck happened when police tried to pull over a black Infiniti G35 sedan on the Gowanus Expressway near Hamilton Avenue around noon.
When they tried to exit the highway via the ramp at Atlantic Avenue near Hicks Street, the car collided with the back of the truck, shearing off the top of the driver’s head.
“When he exited here, he was driving 70 to 80 miles per hour, and the trailer was waiting for the light,” said Joseph Vega, 59, who was riding his bike to work at the time. Highway patrol was chasing him.”
Vega continued, “Both occupants seem to be wearing seatbelts. When I went to see what happened to the driver, he had no head. His head was in the back seat. It was horrible.”
Vega said the shocked passenger got out of the car screaming and tried to run after the crash, but she was quickly captured by police and taken to Lutheran Hospital.
“When you see things like this, it’s hard to believe they’re happening,” Vega said. “The only thing that’s automatic is to want to help, but sometimes there’s nothing you can do.”
The driver had not yet been identified by police pending family notification. It is unclear why police initially tried to pull the driver over.
Did the police try using pickle juice to reattach the guy’s head? My dad says pickle juice cures heartburn, so maybe it could help with decapitation too? You don’t know until you try.
Know of an acquaintance in a similar accident, fortunately he wasn’t wearing a seat belt and was able to slide down when the back end of a truck came through his windshield…
Seat belts and air bags have killed far more people than cancer! But the Democrats are funded by the big seat belt corporations, so they write unconstitutional laws forcing us to wear them! We need Trump back in office now, before more innocent people are killed by evil seat belts.
