Run Over by Train, Man Dials 911

Two years ago Truman Duncan was working a a rail yard outside of Forth Worth when he lost his footing, fell beneath a moving train and was basically cut in half. Unbelievably, he was able to reach his cellular phone and dial 911 for help as a co-worker ran for help. In a dramatic call, he told an unnamed dispatcher, “I think I’m cut in two.” The female dispatcher asked him, “Someone got run over?” and Duncan patiently explains, “It was me.” Duncan hasn’t given interviews until now, after 21 surgeries and on-going rehabilitation. He now wants to spotlight the plight of returning Iraq military veterans, and so is telling his story to reporters. Read his story and listen to the amazing 911 call here.
