The driver of the truck returned to the scene of the accident on foot and was identified as David Nosti. Police say Notsi said he was driving on East Broad Street when the car tried to pass him on the left, lost control and hit a tree.

Nosti said his 6-year-old was in the truck with him and he went home to drop him off.
