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.
