Truck-Train Crash Kills Milford Man

Kosciusko County police say a 33-year-old Milford man was driving really fast last night, when his pickup truck crashed through a gate at a railroad crossing and slammed into the 41st car of an 80-car freight train. The impact ejected Darrell Doss from the truck and threw him about 80 feet, killing him instantly. The crash happened just before 6:30 on Old State Road 15 at Milford Junction, which is just north of Milford. The train dragged the truck about 15-hundred feet before damage to the train’s air hose caused it to stop.
