A worker was talking to her and motioning for her to pull out when he heard the gravel shift in the trailer, and watched as it toppled on to her car crushing seemingly everything but the hood. A neighbor tells us what he saw. It sounded like two cars went 80milesanhour into each other. We heard a horn for a minute and a half or so. I came out with a fire extinguisher, and i saw the people trying to dig her out. He turned around and useed the backhoe to rip it out of the back. Thats when the fire truck showed up and they took her heart rate and they determined she was dead. Reporter the driver has years of experience. Very good driver. Has been with me for 25 years.

Its very frustrating for all of us. Reporter the mystery goo only described as a nonpetroleum fat killed 270 birds this year on the San Francisco bay. State senator mark leno says the relief response was lackluster. There wasnt any other way to deal with this. Reporter state emergency money is only available for fuel spill so instead of a widespread response, all of the work was left up to nonprofits like San Francisco bay keeper.
