On February 10, 2014, a 40-year-old male career fire fighter died after being struck by a civilian's vehicle and falling from an overpass. The fire fighter was one of four fire fighters that were working a crash scene involving multiple vehicles on an ice covered interstate bridge and overpass. The fire fighter was assisting a stranded motorist and crossed over the protective barrier where he was struck by another vehicle and fell 56 feet from the bridge onto the underpass below. Fire fighters rushed to his aid and performed several life saving measures, including CPR. He was transported by a fire department rescue unit to a local hospital where he was pronounced deceased upon arrival.
