A 41-year-old Texas man was killed by the trash compactor of a sanitation truck on Wednesday morning. Chad Adams was reportedly trying to get warm on Tuesday night when he fell asleep in a dumpster in Ft. Worth. But his pelvis was fatally cracked when the contents of the dumpster, including Adams, were dumped into a sanitation truck the following day. The sanitation worker operating the machinery stopped after hearing Adams’ screams, but Adams died during surgery at John Peter Smith Hospital. Despite reports that Adams was homeless, a friend claimed he lived in Burleson, Texas.
