July 16, 2016


A hit and run crash left an EMT critically injured and several other people hurt in Grand Prairie (Texas) when someone in a pickup truck plowed through a crash scene. EMT Dalton Terrell sustained a traumatic brain injury, broken ribs, lacerated liver and other injuries when he was hit.

Dalton was one of the EMTs on duty working for the Yello Belly Dragstrip in Grand Prairie last Sunday night when a there was a wreck just outside the gates. Dalton and his partner went to help when another truck plowed into the scene. He still has a long recovery ahead. He had to have surgery to repair a torn artery in his brain. But his neurosurgeon said the young father’s prognosis is good.

The driver responsible for injuring all those people is on the run. Grand Prairie police say they have a good idea of who the driver is and just have to find him to make the arrest.

Dalton’s family was told the company did not have workman’s comp insurance. The family will be financially responsible for his medical and hospital stay. A GoFundMe page (link below) has been set up to help with medical bills.
