Milwaukee Tow Driver Tony Evans Uses His Truck to Lift Bus Off Trapped Man After 100-MPH Red-Light Crash

Tony Evans, an employee of Always Towing in Milwaukee, witnessed a car traveling over 100 mph run a red light and crash into a transit bus on April 26, 2024, killing one person and injuring seven, according to RedState citing WISN Milwaukee. Evans rescued a woman from a car, then retrieved his tow truck, positioned it against the bus, lifted it off a man trapped underneath, and pulled him to safety.

Operator takeaway

Evans used his tow truck as a rescue tool to lift a bus off a trapped man — your equipment is more than a revenue generator, and the operators who remember that are the ones communities fight to keep.
