Post by: Jane on May 27, 2015, 06:19:27 AM
We understand there has been a tragic wreck in Howard. Losing two of the boys and another one was flow to Wichita. We know one of the boys was Damon Wilson and heard the other one was Tom Russells son. Does anyone know what happened?

This morning's news on TV was that one was killed, Damon Wilson, and two injured.  They didn't name the injured.  They reportedly were passing when a tire blew out and the truck rolled.

 :'(  All my thoughts and prayers are with the Russell and Wilson families.  Damon was such a good kid...I remember when he was born.  May God grant them His grace to be able to bear this unimaginable pain.

They have added Calvin Russell to the deceased list.  He wasn't on the early morning report.  There are still two in the hospital according to the news station.  Can't always believe what you hear.

It is always tragic when teen-agers are killed.  Makes you want to keep them in their cradles forever.

The news reporter said Calvin Russell.  Did they get the boy's name wrong?  Is it Camron Russell instead of Calvin?  They also said there were still two boys in the hospital.  Perhaps the grape vine is more reliable than the official news sources.

Damon Wilson and Camron Reid Russell are the two young men that did not make it. That is per the State Troopers report.
