The uninjured garbage truck driver did not provide his version of the events that led to the security guard dying. He did give his regrets for the accident and the recently departed.
The garbage truck driver’s name has not been released. Following the accident, he accompanied the police for additional proceedings. The police plan to review nearby CCTV footage.
