Two Truckers Killed In 6 Vehicle Pileup On Pennsylvania's I-80

Truck driver Leonard Wayne Mink died a hero.

On January 7, 2015, Wayne was involved in an 18-vehicle pileup on Interstate 80 in western Pennsylvania.

Visibility was limited, but Mink, and several other drivers, left their vehicles to help children who were involved in the pileup.

Sadly, as Mink was working to help the other accident victims, he was struck and killed.

This week, Mink was laid to rest. His family and loved ones honored him with an 8-truck funeral procession.

Rest in peace, driver.
