NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A pedestrian was killed after he was run over by a tractor-trailer early Saturday morning.
Metro Police report that an unidentified man was sleeping between the second and third axles of the tractor-trailer before the incident occurred.
The tractor-trailer had been parked alongside a curb in an alley behind a travel center in the 600 block of Fesslers Lane. The 36-year-old truck driver said he came out to the truck, examined the area and did not see anything out of the ordinary before he got inside.
