Steelers’ Dwayne Haskins Was Walking For Gas When He Was Fatally Hit By Truck

A crash report shows that Dwayne Haskins was hit by two vehicles while trying to cross the highway prior to his fatal accident in the early morning hours of April 9.

Documents say after Haskins, 24, was hit by a dump truck in the middle of a Broward County highway, a Subaru Outback also partially struck his body. Neither driver was tested for alcohol nor drugs.

A witness claims a third vehicle may have also been involved in the accident, which left the former Washington and Pittsburgh quarterback dead at the scene.

The report does not say why Haskins was attempting to cross the highway, but reports say that he ran out of gas and was walking to get more.
