28-year-old Jakeem Murray died at the hospital hours after a truck he was driving over turned in Cedar Valley yesterday.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

BACK GROUND: <\/strong>Two men are reportedly nursing injuries following separate incidents on Wednesday, March 28: one involving a cement truck and the other a pick-up truck.<\/p>\n

Reports are that a man had to be rushed to the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre for treatment after the cement truck he was driving overturned in the Cedar Valley area.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It is unclear what triggered the accident, which caused a light pole to be broken into two pieces and the utility lines to hang low.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The incident reportedly occurred in the vicinity of a construction site, but it was not known whether the truck was transporting cement to that location.<\/p>\n

The vehicle fell onto its side off a dirt road \u00a0and it appeared that the front axle was damaged, causing a wheel to be twisted.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Reports say the driver was transported to the hospital by the Emergency Medical Service (EMS); however, the extent of his injuries has not been ascertained.<\/p>\n

In the other incident, a man allegedly fell out the back of a pick-up truck in which he was travelling in the Cedar Grove area.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

What caused the man to fall is not known; \u00a0however, onlookers quickly went to his rescue, assisting him to the side of the road and laying him flat with his head on a cushion.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The man\u2019s slippers were seen in the road, in addition to a sheet of galvanize.<\/p>\n

Apparently he, too, had to be transported to the hospital to be seen by a doctor.<\/p>\n
