The driver of the gasoline tanker that crashed in Fort Worth, Texas, is fighting for his life while authorities and residents deal with the aftermath of the accident, which included power lines igniting thousands of gallons of fuel.
The accident happened around 1 a.m. Sunday near Trinity Boulevard and Texas 360, where an 18-wheeler carrying roughly 9,000 gallons of gasoline collided with another vehicle, officials told CBS Texas. The impact caused power lines to fall, sparking the leaking fuel and triggering a massive blaze that quickly engulfed the truck.
