DALLAS An 18-wheeler truck fell off a freeway ramp near downtown Dallas on Wednesday, landing on a car below and killing both drivers.
The truck lost control as it drove along a ramp that curves toward I-35; a police spokesman said the truck's load of lead pipes may have shifted.

Guys, 'Spect y'all meant to be commenting to either of these PegasusNews story posts below---both relative to Barnett Shale and drilling. As opposed to this truck-crushing-car twin death yesterday horror story.

Thanks, Rawlins:
fullerdf, while we appreciate your enthusiasm for a local topic -- and think you might consider being a content partner, we take exception to people spamming us. Six nearly-identical comments in a half hour. And the capper being this one that is totally off topic, and therefore pretty disrespectful to families of two local people who were killed. This is a local news community, not your private soapbox.
(Side note: So nice when our users do our job for us)
Robert was responding to fullerd's admonition that all landowners being drilled should get a 50% royalty.
