Truck carrying tank after Trump's birthday parade kills pedestrian in DC

Truck carrying tank after Army's 250th birthday parade kills pedestrian in DC

The accident occurred on the evening of June 16.

A truck carrying one of the Army M1 Abrams tanks that participated in President Donald Trump's parade in honor of the service's 250th birthday struck and killed a woman in Washington.

The accident occurred on the evening of June 16 – two days after the parade – on New York Avenue while a contract truck driver was hauling the tank from the West Potomac Park staging area to a railyard in Jessup, Maryland, according to an internal Army document obtained by USA TODAY. The truck was part of a larger convoy of vehicles.

The woman, whose name was not included in the document, was alone at the time of her death.

This woman died for the vanity of a dictator.

But that truck would not have been there without Needy Amin’s stoopid parade.

This woman should still be alive. She is dead because of Trump’s vanity.
