The body of a Dallas sanitation worker was found yesterday at the McCommas Bluff Landfill in Dallas. Police identified the man as Roderick Terrell, a brush truck driver.
Mr. Terrell was on the job at the landfill when he was last seen. Coworkers discovered his empty, still running truck about two hours after he checked in at the landfill to unload his truck. A search for Mr. Terrell then began. His body was found the next day.
Authorities believe that this is the first on-duty fatality at the landfill. The medical examiner is determining a cause of death for Mr. Terrell. Authorities do not suspect foul play.
A memorial service for Mr. Terrell will be held in the coming days.
