A Florida woman was fatally struck by a big rig truck on Friday, leading to her death. But several hours afterward her dog remained at the scene, lying down in the road where the accident happened.
According to Action News Jax, Deputies found the victim dead in the street around 6:15 a.m. near
a Jacksonville gas station. The family identified her as 42yrs old Kelly Black and said she was taking a walk with her dog, Paco, when the accident happened.
Dog Paco, who was uninjured, stayed with Kelly after she was hit. He remained there, lying in the road with a red bandana around his neck, long after her body had been removed.
Sources say Kelly’s family had to struggle to take the dog home. She and her dog were inseparable.
The operator of the semi-truck was pulling out of the gas station when he “mistakenly” struck Kelly and he was said to have dragged her more than 30 feet before stopping.
But the trucker driver may not have known he hit someone, said the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office.
But Kelly’s father disagrees. He said, “I don’t see how someone could hit her here and drag her all the way out to Beaver Street and not have known it. I just don’t know how I’m going to tell her mamma.”
