Ice cream truck driver pinned by tree: ‘Thank God I’m alive’

KALAMAZOO, Mich. (WOOD) — The two Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety officers who responded after a large tree fell on an ice cream truck said they couldn’t believe the driver walked away with only a few scrapes.

Sgt. David Moran and Officer Alex Wright were called to Springmont Avenue near Barnard Avenue late Saturday afternoon after it happened.

“When I first got there, I see the cables down. There was people all over the place. The truck was basically bent in half,” Moran said.

“At first I thought, ‘Well, at least it’s not across where the driver would be.’ Only to find out as soon as I got up to the van that he was actually in the back, serving the two little girls,” Wright said.
