RIP Dwayne Haskins.
 

Apparently struck by a car and killed.

That is very sad...only 24 years old.

Simply tragic.... so young :(

RIP Dwayne...

Very sad , what a rotten way to go . RIP young man

Run over by a dump truck crossing a hwy on foot. One split second error in judgement ends a promising young life starting off with riches, fame and who knows what else. Such a shame

I was just reading some more about it...he was crossing the westbound I-595 on foot.
That is one crazy busy highway...how did he even get to it on foot? :confused:
Maybe his vehicle broke down?

I also noticed the time given... 6:37 am... still before daylight. Maybe the hwy wasn't that busy, but something doesn't seem to add up. Hate to speculate tho' ... it's simply tragic, regardless of the events that led up to his death.

I often try to walk across an interstate
at 6:30 am
nothing unusual about that

A good article....

shocking

Per the news I read, he had run out of gas and was standing in the middle of the interstate trying to flag down help ???

That would explain how someone that you would otherwise expect to be fairly speedy with excellent reflexes could end up in that situation.

And with ketamine and 2.5X the legal limit for alcohol in his blood and a woman in the car who is not his wife.

‘I know. I’ll get in front of a speeding dump truck to stop it.’

I-595 goes from the airport (FLL) west to the cities edge...it's 4-5 lanes of traffic almost the whole way.
Frogger

I knew there had to be more to the story. It sucks for his family that this was made public. If he was Dwayne Haskins factory worker, the story ended with him being struck and killed. But he was Dwayne Haskins troubled professional football player.

very close to my home. Story goes that he ran out of gas and was trying to cross.. Lots of lanes...... Very sad

Ketamine? "That's horse medicine!"
