Richmond Heights resident killed in freak accident in west St. Louis

ST. LOUIS, MO – A 73-year-old man was killed yesterday afternoon when a pair of semi-truck tires crashed onto the roof of his car as he was driving on I-64.

First Alert 4 reports that the accident happened at about 2 p.m. on Thursday near the interchange with I-270. Authorities say that a semi-truck threw two tires, which subsequently hit the median barrier and went airborne before falling into the passing vehicle.

Investigations into the crash remain ongoing at this time. We do not know what caused the wheels to fall off the truck or whether anyone else was injured. We will provide additional updates should they become available.
