18-wheeler kills man while changing tire

A Houston, TX man is killed by an 18-wheeler while changing his tire.

According to police a man was driving on a stretch of Katy Freeway in the Spring Valley area when he was forced to change a ruptured tire. Due to construction, there was no shoulder available and he was forced to work on his vehicle in the far right lane.

An 18-wheeler approached the vehicle at a high rate of speed and the driver was not able to slow the vehicle in time. The 18-wheeler struck the driver of the car with such force that it sent him flying through the air for a distance of approximately 70 feet. He died at the scene. The victim has not yet been identified by authorities.
