Accident at Manatee Rec
 

Apparently, a cement truck ran off of Hillsborough trail, thru landscaping and ended up in the tennis court. Some of the neighbors said that EMS responded and they thought that the driver had had a heart attack. EMTs worked on him, but ambulance left with siren off.

I hope he is OK.... :(

The online news site says he's at Leesburg Hospital.

He's in critical condition.

Can you share a link for this story !!!

It is not on **************,com

One of our drivers, he had a heart attack. He is at LRMC. He is in Stable Condition and doing alot better than yesterday.
90% blockage that has been cleared. Still has 80% blockage in another artery,

Prayers for a speedy recovery

I'm never successful at posting the link, but the story is on the right hand side under "breaking news". I didn't see it at first either.

Hope all will be well. Thoughts and prayers!

Please keep us informed as to his progress. Our prayers are with him and his family.

Thank you !!!

Thank you Gary. Many prayers heading his way.

Here it is...all three sentences

They also have a Facebook page which pretty much mirrors the website.

Will pass on more news today when his wife calls in. He is 62 and has been talking about hanging the wheel up and retiring. Had just talked to him on phone about 20 min earlier, and all was fine.

Thanks all for kind words, will pass on to his family.

Great thing the Rec Center was not open yet.

may he have a speedy recovery

**************.com states he had a seizure prior to the accident. Nothing about cardiac issues.

Ok, the internet newspaper here in The Villages states he had a seizure. Nothing about cardiac issues. ?

Yes we just called them,,,,, He had a Heart Attack. Plain and simple.
The lady said they would delete all the negative comments also.

There were negative comments?????
