Dallas Pedestrian Accident Involving a Monster Truck Claims Life of One at Strip Club

Posted on Apr 08, 2011

A Dallas pedestrian accident outside of a local strip club claims the life of a woman after she is struck by a monster truck. The incident took place at approximately 2:15 AM on Thursday morning, March 17, 2011, in the parking lot of Spearmint Rhino Gentleman's Club on Composite Drive.

According to local police, the driver of a lifted, silver, four-door Ford F-250 failed to see a female pedestrian in the Spearmint Rhino Gentleman's Club's parking lot and ran her over. The victim, Kasey McKenzie, 23, of Granbury, lost her life from injuries sustained in the freak accident.

The driver has been identified as 27-year-old Eric Crutchfield. He was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol and charged with intoxicated manslaughter. He was also allegedly driving on a suspended license.

The police report cites that the front tires on Mr. Crutchfield's truck appeared to be at least three feet tall. He told police that he did not realize that he hit her until people in the parking lot stopped him.

Ms. McKenzie's family and friends have reported that she was not an employee of the strip club.

The fatal Dallas pedestrian accident is still under investigation by local authorities.

This is a terrible tragedy and we would like to extend our thoughts and condolences to the victim's family and friends during this difficult time.
