Per information provided by a close family friend of his I learned more about the young man (26 years old) below us that passed away yesterday following a car wreck Friday.
He was headed down a 60 mph 4 lane divided highway when a car pulled out in front of him from a side road. He swerved and actually missed that car but another vehicle in the other lane clipped the corner of his truck spinning him around at which time the truck began rolling, the vehicle rolled over 7 times ejecting him out onto the highway. During that period his vehicle traveled over 100 yards down the highway. No, he was not wearing a seatbelt.
He died from traumatic brain damage, his brain was not functioning when he arrived at the hospital and they kept him on life support for 48 hours before determining there was no hope of any recovery.
Nicholas Newbern was a very nice young man and a dedicated father that worked hard at his profession as a Metal Fabricator.
RIP Nicholas
