Police in northeastern Indiana say a package delivery driver was killed when a tree crashed onto his truck during a thunderstorm.
The UPS truck was hit Tuesday evening as the storm moved through Auburn. The tree fell onto the truck’s cab, crushing the driver’s side.
The DeKalb County coroner’s office tells The Star of Auburn that Todd Alber of Fort Wayne was killed instantly in the city about 20 miles north of Fort Wayne.
