The wife of Dwayne Haskins told a 911 dispatcher that he was walking to get gas on the morning he was struck and killed by a dump truck on a Florida highway, according to the Broward County Sherrif's office.
In the 911 call, the dispatcher told Haskins' wife that there was a report of an accident near where she said her husband got out of his car, but she couldn't confirm if he was involved. The audio released Wednesday also included calls from witnesses who said they saw the dump truck hit a man.
A final crash report released by the Florida Highway Patrol said Haskins was walking on the westbound side of I-595 when he entered into the travel lanes and into the path of the dump truck, which was traveling in the center lane. The front left of the dump truck struck Haskins. The report concluded that Haskins was improperly in the roadway, and the driver of the dump truck wasn't found to have taken any actions that contributed to the accident, based on the judgment of the investigation officer. Haskins was also struck by a second car traveling beside the dump truck that took evasive maneuvers to avoid him, but partially hit him on its right side undercarriage, according to the report.
A third vehicle may have also been involved, the report said, based on one witness' account. Haskins was pronounced dead at the scene by Captain Rod Watkins of the Fort Lauderdale Fire Department at 6:48 a.m. He was 24.The first of three memorial services for Haskins will take place in Pittsburgh on Friday at 11 a.m. at Allegheny Center Alliance Church.
"My husband was more than a great football player," Kalabrya Haskins said in a statement earlier this week."He had the smile of a rainbow that touched the diversity of so many. He will forever rest and remain in our hearts til the end of time."
