One killed in Haifa collision, concrete tubes roll onto Tel Aviv highway

A 17-year-old youth is killed in Haifa when his motorcycle slams into a truck on Halutzei Hataasiya Street.

After the collision, the youth became trapped under the truck’s wheels. Paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene.

Also Wednesday, drivers on the Ayalon highway in Tel Aviv were forced to swerve out of the way as a truck carrying massive concrete tubes lost its cargo. One rolled off the truck bed onto the adjacent lane and stopped there, and the second rolled the other way, crushing the metal lane divider and rolling into the island separating the north- and south-bound lanes.

No one is hurt in the Ayalon accident.
