«Breaking News» Texas snow plow driver, 25, is killed after losing control of the truck he was driving

A 25-year-old snowplow driver for the Kansas Department of Transportation is dead after the truck he was driving on U.S. Highway 69 rolled over.

The crash happened around 6am Saturday in southern Johnson County just outside the Kansas City metropolitan area. 

Officials say the rollover happened as roads remained slick from a winter storm that had moved through the area Friday night.

The driver has been identified by the Kansas Highway Patrol as Stephen Windler of Paola.

A police crash report says his truck 'traveled to the right, traversing the shoulder and drove into the grass' before it rolled over.

The truck rotated counter-clockwise, overturned and rolled, dumping salt and ejecting the driver. 

Just after Windler was thrown from the vehicle, it then landed on top of him.

Windler was described as 'both experienced and dedicated to serving the people of Johnson County and the state of Kansas' in a Saturday afternoon news conference led the Kansas Secretary of Transportation Julie Lorenz. He had been with KDOT for three years and was out treating the roads by himself at the time of the crash.

'I've extended my thoughts and prayers to the entire KDOT family this morning and we will continue to embrace Stephen's family and friends affected by this loss,' Lorenz said.  

'When people are out there clearing the roads, they are putting their lives at risk so that we can be safe, and we all owe state workers a debt of gratitude for keeping us safe,' she continued. 

Gov. Laura Kelly also tweeted about the loss, saying: 'My heart is breaking for the family of this dedicated employee. Our KDOT personnel work very hard, at all hours, in dangerous conditions to make our roads safe for their fellow Kansans.'  

Snow and ice covered freeways, highways and roads across parts of the Midwest as the storm moved Saturday toward the Northeast and New England. 

Some northern parts of New England could see up to 18 inches of snow.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
